@DavidPenington@mastodon.au The paragraph you quoted did not mention anything about aid deliveries. And don't conflate media being mostly silent with all media being silent all the time about all aspects.
Also, how is it not a food blockade when the miniscule fraction (check the data again) allowed to enter is allowed nowhere near appropriate volumes nor the logistics to make it to the delivery spots?
The evidence of a blockade is 1. the famine and 2. the tonnes of aid rotting at the borders.

@DavidPenington@mastodon.au In reference to the blockade, and media actually calling it what it is—here's the BBC on the UN genocide report: "Among a long list of accusations [is the] imposition of 'inhumane conditions causing the death of Palestinians, including the deprivation of food, water and medicines'. That is a reference to the blockade that has produced a famine as well as widespread starvation" https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c0m4rxjppl8o.amp No ambiguity re. calling it a blockade.
