11 deaths due to famine and malnutrition in the past 24 hours

Medical sources in the Gaza Strip announced the death of 11 citizens, including two children, due to famine and malnutrition, within the last 24 hours. These figures reflect the catastrophic situation that the residents of the strip are experiencing under harsh conditions.

According to medical sources, the total number of victims of famine and malnutrition has risen to 300 martyrs, including 117 children. These statistics reflect the extent of the suffering that children in Gaza are enduring, as many of them are suffering from severe malnutrition.

The humanitarian crisis in the Gaza Strip continues to worsen, amid the imposed siege and shortages of food and medical supplies. Since October 7, 2023, the occupying state has been waging a genocidal war, leading to an unprecedented deterioration of the humanitarian situation.

Since March 2, 2025, the occupying authorities have closed all crossings with the Gaza Strip, preventing the entry of most food and medical aid. This closure has led to the spread of famine within the strip, where residents are suffering from a severe shortage of basic materials.

In this context, the United Nations Relief and Works Agency (UNRWA) warned that malnutrition among children under five has doubled between March and June, due to the ongoing siege. These warnings indicate the seriousness of the health situation for children in Gaza.

The World Health Organization also confirmed that malnutrition rates in Gaza have reached alarming levels, noting that the deliberate siege and delays in aid have caused many lives to be lost. The situation requires an urgent response from the international community to save the lives of children and women in the strip.
