Over 100 international aid organizations and rights groups have issued urgent warnings about mass starvation spreading across Gaza, blaming Israel's ongoing blockade and restrictions on humanitarian aid.
Medical workers, aid staff, and journalists are now among those at risk of dying from hunger, as hospitals become overwhelmed and unable to care for the malnourished and wounded. The United Nations and health officials report that dozens, including infants and children, have died from starvation in recent days, with the total death toll from malnutrition surpassing 100 since the conflict began. Despite Israeli claims that aid is entering Gaza, humanitarian groups say only a trickle is getting through, and the situation is rapidly deteriorating.
Calls for a permanent ceasefire, unrestricted aid access, and an end to the blockade are growing as the world witnesses what experts describe as one of the most controlled and devastating campaigns of starvation in modern history.
