50+ children suffering from malnutrition, starvation in North Gaza
Approximately 50 children are experiencing malnutrition and starvation in the northern area of the region due to the Israeli total blockade on Gaza, as per a Sunday statement by Husam Abu Safiya, the director of Gaza's Kamal Adwan Hospital.
"Around 50 children suffering from malnutrition have been counted in just one week, and the specter of famine looms over Gaza,” the statement read.
"The health system in Gaza is a target of the [Israeli] occupation, but we are trying to resume medical services at a minimum despite fuel shortages," it added.
The director of Gaza's Kamal Adwan Hospital also cautioned that the situation across the territory is dire, with Israeli forces blocking the delivery of humanitarian aid by closing Gaza's major crossings, notably Rafah and Karem Abu Salem.
His warning came shortly after the United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA) issued a warning, stating that insufficient aid is reaching Palestinians in Gaza, leading to a dire situation where children are facing starvation.
