A severe hunger crisis is sweeping Gaza, with dozens dying daily from starvation and malnutrition, including many children and infants.
Over 100 humanitarian organizations have issued urgent warnings, blaming Israel's ongoing blockade and restrictions on aid for the escalating catastrophe. Hospitals are overwhelmed, medical staff are themselves malnourished, and aid workers report that even they are at risk of starvation.

The international community is under mounting pressure to demand an immediate end to the blockade and restore the full flow of humanitarian assistance.
