As global concern over the crisis in Gaza intensifies, Steve Witkoff, Trump's special envoy to the Middle East, visited an aid distribution site in the enclave.

WASHINGTON—U.S. Middle East envoy Steve Witkoff is set to visit the Gaza Strip on Friday to develop a new aid-distribution plan, the White House said Thursday, part of the Trump administration’s push to alleviate the deepening humanitarian crisis.

Steve Witkoff went to the Palestinian enclave amid growing pressure on Israel to ease a deepening hunger crisis there. Hamas derided the visit as a “propaganda show.”
