"It was terrifying, said Mr. Isleem, 47, whom the looters held for 13 hours while they pillaged the flour. But the worst part was we weren't able to deliver the food to the people."
"In parts of southern Gaza, armed gangs have filled the resulting power vacuum, leaving aid groups unwilling to risk delivering supplies."
