Palestinians in Gaza have been forced to resort to eating barley and animal fodder in their bread, amid shortages caused by Israel’s bombing and cutting off of supplies.

The UN has previously warned about starvation in Gaza as Israel has continued to obstruct vital aid from entering the Strip.

One man said that there is a “true famine” in north Gaza.
