It comes a day after Unicef said more than 5,000 children were diagnosed with malnutrition in the Gaza Strip in May.

Witnesses have described scenes like “a horror movie” in Gaza after Israeli forces fired towards a crowd waiting for trucks loaded with flour near Khan Younis, on one of the bloodiest days for weeks in the devastated territory. At least 51 Palestinians were reported to have been killed and hundreds more wounded in the southern city. People at the scene and doctors described seeing injured and dead with wounds typical of those caused by artillery or tank fire.

The Athletics are coming off a sweep of the Kansas City Royals over the weekend, a feat they hadn't achieved since they swept the Chicago White Sox in April. They hadn't even won three in a row since April 30-May 2, beating the Texas Rangers twice, and then the Miami Marlins for the third. On the year, the A's sit at 29-44 after an awful month of May pretty much tanked the season.
