00:00Respite is not coming for displaced Palestinians in the Gaza Strip.
00:04After more than three years of Israel waging a brutal war against them,
00:08the civilian population is facing increasing food insecurity.
00:12The reason? Aid cuts for humanitarian programs due to funding shortages.

00:22This creates a lot of fear among people because we are in a tough situation in the Gaza Strip,
00:27as we are besieged from all directions.

00:40But the lack of food is making them more desperate than ever.
00:46What can people do? Tell us, world. What do you want from Gaza?
00:50Three years on and we've been dying. Three years on and we've been suffering.
00:54Three years on and we've been living in a back and forth of aid being given and then scaled back.

01:04Where can people get supplies?
01:06You tell us, where do we get supplies? We are humans, not animals.
01:12Whether the funding shortage in humanitarian aid will be resolved remains, however, uncertain.
01:17How do we get supplies?
01:19How do we get supplies?
01:20What are we making as possible?
