Children at Risk of Death Due to Israeli Starvation Policies in Gaza
Amidst the chaos, the government media office revealed a dire situation for children in the Gaza Strip. More than 3,500 children under the age of five are at risk of death due to Israeli starvation policies. Lack of food, essential supplies, and medical care have left these vulnerable children in a precarious state, with their health and well-being severely compromised.
