Gaza Blockade: Starvation Kills Dozens Amidst Humanitarian Crisis
Gaza Blockade: Dozens Starve to Death Amidst Humanitarian Crisis Gaza is facing a severe humanitarian crisis due to Israel's total blockade of the enclave since the ceasefire broke down in early March 2025. Dozens of Palestinians have reportedly starved to death, with many victims being children. The UN's refugee agency has warned of a looming hunger crisis and accused Israel of the illegal "weaponization of humanitarian aid." The video shows harrowing scenes of people scavenging for food in the rubble-strewn streets of Gaza. One woman described the desperate situation, saying, "We are starving. People are dying." The UN has partially withdrawn its international staff from Gaza after an Israeli attack killed a staff member and wounded others. Despite the dire situation, Israel's Prime Minister has denied claims of widespread malnutrition in Gaza. The UN reports that over 9,000 children have been admitted to hospitals for acute malnutrition since the start of 2025. The crisis highlights the urgent need for international intervention and aid to prevent further loss of life.
