Israel says it will allow a limited amount of humanitarian aid into Gaza. It says it doesn't want a “starvation crisis” jeopardizing its new military offensive in the territory of over 2 million Palestinians.

Three days after Israel said it would relax its blockade of humanitarian aid to Gaza, little, if any, of the urgently needed food, fuel and medicine appeared to have reached Palestinians.

About 90 trucks carrying flour, baby food and nutritional supplements entered the Gaza Strip late Wednesday, local officials and the U.N. humanitarian affairs agency said, the first tranche of aid to reach the besieged territory in more than two months.
