2/3 of Israelis oppose food aid for Gaza, with many wrongly believing less than 10% of Gazans are hungry. The reality? Over 90% face acute food insecurity. Media bias and censorship in Israel may be distorting public perception, political science professors explain:

Exposure to accurate reporting over the dire plight of people in Gaza resulted in 5% bump in those in Israel who supported aid convoys.
