A severe hunger crisis is unfolding in Gaza, with doctors, aid workers, and civilians reporting mass starvation and escalating deaths from malnutrition, especially among children.
Over 100 humanitarian organizations have issued urgent warnings, blaming Israel's blockade and restrictions on aid for the worsening situation, while the UN and WHO describe the crisis as 'man-made' and 'unprecedented.' Hospitals are overwhelmed, medical staff are too weak to treat patients, and even aid workers are now going hungry. Disputes continue between Israel and the UN over responsibility for stalled aid distribution, as international condemnation grows and calls for a ceasefire intensify.
The crisis has reached a point where starvation is being used as a weapon of war, with experts warning of famine and a humanitarian collapse.
