A severe hunger crisis is sweeping Gaza, with doctors and aid groups reporting a sharp rise in deaths from starvation and malnutrition, especially among children.
Over 100 humanitarian organizations have accused Israel of imposing a blockade that restricts food and aid, leading to what they describe as 'mass starvation.' Medical staff and aid workers are themselves succumbing to hunger, and hospitals are overwhelmed and unable to treat the growing number of malnourished patients. Despite international condemnation and urgent calls for Israel to open land crossings and allow unrestricted aid, the situation continues to deteriorate, with reports of deadly violence at aid distribution sites.
The United Nations and other agencies warn that Gaza is on the brink of famine, with the death toll from hunger rising daily.
