A severe and worsening starvation crisis is gripping Gaza, with dozens of children and adults dying from hunger and malnutrition as food supplies dwindle.
Humanitarian organizations and UN agencies blame Israeli policies, including a blockade and restrictions on aid deliveries, for creating conditions that have led to mass suffering and deaths. Hospitals are overwhelmed with skeletal, malnourished children, and aid workers warn that supplies of life-saving therapeutic food will run out within weeks if the situation does not change. Israel and the UN are trading blame over the failure to distribute hundreds of aid trucks stuck inside Gaza, while violence and chaos at aid distribution points have turned food collection into a deadly risk.
The international community is sounding the alarm, calling for an immediate ceasefire, unimpeded aid access, and an end to the blockade to prevent further catastrophe.
