Watch: How did Gaza get to the brink of starvation?

Before Hamas's 7 October attack, around 650 lorries a day brought aid into Gaza.

But now, more than 100 international aid organisations and human rights groups have warned of mass starvation in Gaza.

Israel has insisted there are no restrictions on aid deliveries and that there is "no starvation".

However, it has announced in recent days measures aimed at helping the UN and its partners collect aid from crossings and distribute it within Gaza, including daily "tactical pauses" in military operations in three areas and designated corridors.

The BBC's diplomatic correspondent Paul Adams explains how the people of Gaza have reached a point of starvation.
