Gaza faces an unprecedented humanitarian crisis as World Central Kitchen has been forced to close its soup kitchens due to dwindling supplies, while nearly 290,000 children are on the brink of death amid rising malnutrition. An Israeli plan aimed at controlling aid distribution in Gaza has sparked widespread opposition from UN and international organizations, who accuse it of weaponizing humanitarian efforts. Coupled with a total blockade now entering its third month, reports indicate that Gazans are experiencing extreme deprivation and starvation. Aid groups are urging immediate action, as the situation continues to deteriorate with reports of empty markets and desperate families. In a bid to manage aid effectively, plans are underway involving U.S. military contractors, raising concerns about forcible displacement of the population. As famine looms, calls for global intervention intensify, but reports suggest a disconnect between international responses and the dire realities on the ground.
