A catastrophic hunger crisis is unfolding in Gaza, with dozens of Palestinians, including many children, dying from malnutrition and starvation in recent days.
Hospitals and aid agencies report that food and medical supplies are nearly depleted, and humanitarian workers themselves are collapsing from hunger. Despite claims that aid is entering Gaza, the United Nations and other organizations warn that the blockade and ongoing conflict have left a third of the population without food for days. The situation is compounded by continued Israeli military operations, attacks on aid seekers, and the collapse of basic services.
International leaders and experts are calling the crisis unprecedented and accuse Israel of using starvation as a weapon, while the world faces mounting pressure to intervene.
