Gaza is experiencing a severe, man-made starvation crisis, with the World Health Organization and United Nations warning that Israel's blockade has led to widespread hunger and malnutrition, especially among children.
Hospitals are reporting a rising number of deaths from starvation, and aid agencies say food supplies are critically low, with specialized therapeutic foods for malnourished children set to run out soon. Despite some aid trucks entering Gaza, distribution is hampered by ongoing conflict, bureaucratic obstacles, and accusations between Israel and the UN over responsibility for the crisis. Doctors and journalists on the ground describe desperate conditions, with families surviving on minimal food and children dying from hunger-related causes.
International calls for a ceasefire, unrestricted aid access, and an end to the blockade are growing as the humanitarian catastrophe deepens.
