RAFAH, Gaza Strip (AP) — An aid ship loaded with some 200 tons of food set sail from Cyprus to Gaza. The shipment, which departed Tuesday, is a test for the opening of a sea corridor to supply aid to the territory, where starvation is spreading five months into the Israel-Hamas war. Associated Press live footage showed it being towed out of a harbor. The United States also plans to construct a sea bridge near Gaza to deliver aid, likely to take weeks. The war triggered by Hamas’ Oct. 7 attack on Israel has killed over 30,000 Palestinians. The U.N. says a quarter of the population is starving.
