A bit of relief trickled in Friday to Gaza, which has been rocked by weeks of Israeli bombings and choked by a blockade. The International Committee of the Red Cross says it sent a war surgery team and other experts into the embattled Palestinian territory, along with six trucks ferrying medical supplies and water purification tools.
"Our surgical team and medical supplies will help relieve the extreme pressure on Gaza's doctors and nurses," said Fabrizio Carboni, the ICRC's regional director. "But safe, sustained humanitarian access is urgently needed."
"This humanitarian catastrophe is deepening by the hour," he added.
