Over 100 humanitarian and human rights organizations have issued urgent warnings that Israel's ongoing blockade and military offensive are causing mass starvation in Gaza.
Reports from aid groups, doctors, and international agencies describe a rapidly worsening hunger crisis, with children and adults dying from malnutrition and hospitals overwhelmed by skeletal patients. The United Nations and World Health Organization have labeled the situation as 'man-made mass starvation,' blaming severe restrictions on aid entry and distribution. While Israel claims it is allowing aid in and blames the UN for distribution delays, aid agencies insist that the blockade and ongoing violence are the primary causes of the crisis.
Calls for an immediate ceasefire, unrestricted aid access, and lifting of the blockade are growing as the death toll from starvation continues to rise.
