US to set up food centres in Gaza to help avert crisis, says Trump 

US President Donald Trump on Monday said the United States will set up food centres in Gaza to help avert a "deepening hunger crisis".  

"We're going to set up food centres where the people can walk in - and no boundaries. We're not going to have fences," he told reporters in Scotland, where he was meeting UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer.

Israeli-imposed starvation has led to the death of 147 Palestinians, including 88 children, according to the Palestinian health ministry. 

Israeli forces have shot dead more than 1,000 Palestinians since May while they were trying to get food near aid sites run by the United States. 

At least 41 people have been killed waiting for humanitarian aid in the besieged enclave since dawn.
