The Dire Situation in Gaza

Amanpour

The Biden Administration has sent a formal letter to the Israeli government demanding it improve the humanitarian situation in Gaza within 30 days, or risk violating American laws over foreign military assistance. This diplomatic move comes as the United Nations says that Israel is "effectively sealing off" the north of the enclave, leaving Palestinians with no access to food. The UN also warns that Israel may be carrying out the "large-scale forced transfer of the civilian population." Correspondent Jomana Karadsheh reports on the terrible suffering of the Israeli hostages and their families, as well as the Palestinian children and civilians who were killed and gruesomely injured.
