World Central Kitchen (WCK) and Anera pause operations in Gaza after seven aid workers are killed in an Israeli air strike. The suspension halts food distribution for two million Palestinians, exacerbating hunger in a territory where 1.1 million people face catastrophic food shortages. The strike also disrupts a maritime aid corridor. Israeli military admits the attack was a "grave mistake" but vows to protect aid workers. Aid groups express skepticism over promises, citing ongoing risks. With aid operations in peril, concerns mount over worsening famine and disease outbreaks in Gaza.
