(AURN News) — President Donald Trump says he’s disappointed in Vladimir Putin and is threatening new sanctions if Russia doesn’t agree to a ceasefire in Ukraine. But the world is also watching another crisis in Gaza, where mass starvation is no longer a warning — it is here.

During his meeting with Britain’s new Prime Minister Keir Starmer at his Turnberry Golf Resort in Scotland, Trump floated a 10- to 12-day deadline for Russia but spent little time addressing Gaza, where more than 111 people — many of them children — have died from starvation in recent months.

After a four-month Israeli siege, hospitals are now filled with malnourished children barely clinging to life. The United Nations says one in three Gazans are going multiple days without eating.

Even aid trucks are being intercepted or delayed by criminal gangs and crossfire, with Israel still controlling what comes in and what doesn’t.

Meanwhile, Trump is on the golf course watching global crises unfold from the comfort of a Scottish estate.
