People attempt to steal aid supplies from a convoy of trucks near the Rafah crossing, southern Gaza, climbing onto the vehicles before police intervene, dispersing the crowd with gunshots.

On Sunday, the World Health Organization's executive board called for immediate and unimpeded humanitarian access to the territory, which has been under Israeli siege since Hamas' October 7 attacks. Aid groups have warned of dire food shortages in Gaza as a winter chill sets in, with Oxfam's Palestinian Policy Chief describing the situation as "apocalyptic."
