As Israel’s war on Gaza continues, the humanitarian situation keeps deteriorating amid the blockade of aid, which hinders efficient aid delivery to the 2.3 million residents.
Hospitals in Gaza announced that 212 Palestinians died from starvation since the war on Gaza began .
Over 100 humanitarian organizations, including Amnesty International, Doctors Without Borders (MSF), and Oxfam, warned that “mass starvation” is spreading across Gaza.
The World Health Organization (WHO) said Gaza City has been the area affected most by malnutrition in the Gaza Strip, with around one in five children under five there now acutely malnourished.
The World Food Programme (WFP) has warned that thousands of Palestinians in Gaza are on the verge of catastrophic hunger, with one in three people in the enclave going days without food.
