Gaza faces a dire humanitarian crisis as escalating violence and starvation conditions lead to soaring death tolls, particularly among children. Recent reports indicate that hospitals are overwhelmed, with 21 children dying from malnutrition and starvation in just 72 hours. The health ministry of Gaza has reported multiple deaths due to malnutrition, with claims of over 100 fatalities linked to hunger in recent days. Civilians describe harrowing conditions, queuing at soup kitchens and risking their lives to access scarce food aid. Reports suggest a deliberate blockade is exacerbating the famine-like situation, leaving UN staff and aid workers struggling to cope. As the international community debates the situation, the crisis in Gaza has reached unprecedented levels, with children bearing the brunt of the conflict and a warning from experts that the region is on the brink of famine.
