Majority of Americans believe US should act to help starving Palestinians in Gaza

A new Reuters/Ipsos poll reveals that nearly two-thirds of Americans believe the US should take action to help Palestinians facing starvation in Gaza. The poll also found that a majority, 58 percent, believe that every country in the United Nations should formally recognize Palestine as a nation. This public sentiment is reported amid an ongoing famine in Gaza due to Israel's blockade, which human rights organizations have described as a deliberate campaign of starvation. The findings come as several countries, including the UK and Canada, have announced plans to recognize a Palestinian state, with some making it contingent on a ceasefire.
