STORYLINE:
At a makeshift tent camp in the Muwasi area, southern Gaza, a man was seen distributing food to adults and children on Saturday morning.

But many were left holding empty containers as the food distribution ended after a few minutes.

A top UN official said Friday that hard-hit northern Gaza was now in “full-blown famine\" after more than six months of war between Israel and Hamas and severe Israeli restrictions on food deliveries to the Palestinian territory.

Cindy McCain, the American director of the UN World Food Program, became the most prominent international official so far to declare that trapped civilians in the most cut-off part of Gaza had gone over the brink into famine.

There was no immediate comment from Israel, which controls entrance into Gaza and says it is beginning to allow in more food and other humanitarian aid through land crossings.
