Desperate Times in Gaza: Starvation and Airstrikes Threaten Thousands

In Gaza’s southern city, designated as a safe zone, over 3,500 children face the imminent threat of starvation, as reported by Gaza’s government. The halt of critical humanitarian aid and medical supplies, following Israel’s control of the Rafah crossing last month, has exacerbated malnutrition among children.

Gaza’s hospitals are now overwhelmed with critically ill patients. Continuous Israeli strikes across the Strip have resulted in at least 28 Palestinian deaths on Monday alone. The situation remains dire, with no clear end to the conflict in sight.

 

 

In Khan Younis, located in the far south of the Gaza Strip, an airstrike has claimed the lives of at least 10 Palestinians, including three children, after destroying a residential building. The harsh reality is that thousands are still trapped under rubble, turning displaced Palestinians’ homes into graveyards.

Deir al-Aqsa Hospital in central Gaza struggles with an influx of patients and the wounded, many in critical condition. The inability to receive treatment outside the territory further complicates the situation for thousands of Palestinians.
