The United Nations has told Palestinian officials it will stop coordinating the entry of Palestinians returning from Egypt into Gaza starting mid-November, Drop Site News reported, citing security risks and Israel's repeated arrests of returnees, including a cancer patient and her daughter. Separately, UN funding shortages are set to leave roughly half a million Gazans without critical food assistance, worsening already soaring prices. Aid workers and families described cutting meals to stretch dwindling supplies, warning of a return to famine conditions. Meanwhile, Israeli lawmakers from Yisrael Beiteinu and Amkha Yisrael joined far-right activists in blocking aid trucks near the Kerem Shalom crossing, calling the shipments unacceptable.
