A severe hunger crisis is unfolding in Gaza, with doctors, aid groups, and international organizations warning of mass starvation and escalating deaths from malnutrition, especially among children.
Over 100 humanitarian organizations have called for urgent action, blaming Israel's blockade and restrictions on aid for creating a man-made famine. Hospitals are overwhelmed, medical staff are themselves becoming too weak to treat patients, and food markets are empty as the death toll rises. Despite reports of aid trucks inside Gaza, distribution remains stalled amid accusations and bureaucratic delays, while the UN and Israel trade blame.
The situation is described as a 'nightmare of historic proportions,' with calls for a ceasefire, unrestricted aid flow, and an end to the blockade growing louder worldwide.
