UN warns Gaza nearing famine as death toll tops 60,000
In this episode of W News, presented by Jono Hayes, our top story is the worsening crisis in Gaza. UN aid agencies warn the territory is on the brink of famine, as Gaza’s health ministry says the death toll from nearly 22 months of war with Israel has surpassed 60,000. Meanwhile, British Prime Minister Keir Starmer will convene an emergency cabinet meeting on Tuesday to discuss the crisis and a proposed peace plan, amid growing pressure from within his own party to recognize a Palestinian state.
