At least 13,000 children have died in Gaza in the last six months; more than in 4 years of global conflict. Despite the UN Security Council calling for an immediate ceasefire in Gaza on Monday, life-saving food aid is still being denied to Palestinians throughout the strip. Unicef is warning of an imminent famine, as hundreds of thousands of people starve. The aid agency's James Elder is on the ground in Rafah where he's been expressing deep frustration at the "unnecessary restrictions and arbitrary denials" on food convoys gaining access to the enclave. He outlines the "annihilation" of whole cities, the desperation of children and their mothers and the special bond Palestinians have with Irish aid workers there.Presented by Sorcha Pollak.
