The bombs have stopped in Gaza, but Rachael is yet to see all the aid she needs

London: The bombs have stopped near the clinic in southern Gaza where Rachael Cummings works, but the hunger has not changed.

Children are still turning up to the clinic with diarrhoea and signs of malnutrition. Women trying to breastfeed their newborn babies are still arriving malnourished.

"The need for supplies is huge," says Cummings, the humanitarian director for Save the Children in Gaza.

Like other aid workers, Cummings hopes the ceasefire in Gaza will end the restrictions on food, water, medical supplies and shelter for Palestinians who have lost their homes over two years of unremitting war.
