The hunger that has been built among the more than two million Palestinians in Gaza has exceeded a tilting point and accelerates deaths, humanitarian workers and health staff.
Not only Palestinian children – generally the most vulnerable – have been victims of the blockade of Israel since March, but also adults.
The United Nations World Food World Food Program claims that nearly 100,000 women and children need urgent treatment for malnutrition, and almost a third of people in Gaza “do not eat for days.” Medical workers say they have lacked many key treatments and drugs.
The World Health Organization reports a strong increase in malnutrition and disease, with a large part of the Gaza residents who are dehosonic.
Doctors Without Borders, known by its French initials MSF, says that a quarter of all young children and pregnant or breastfeeding women exceeded in its clinics in Gaza last week were ill -fed, blaming “the deliberate use of the famine of Israel as a weapon”.
