Starvation Persists in Gaza Despite Ceasefire
The article discusses the humanitarian crisis and its impact on children's health in Gaza, focusing on the rise in cases of severe malnutrition, which has led to the death of 157 children since the beginning of 2024. More than 1.4 million people are at risk of a food crisis until the end of 2026. Data indicates that 158,000 children under the age of five are suffering from malnutrition, including 28,716 cases that threaten their lives. The difficult economic conditions have resulted in shortages of balanced food, milk, and essential medicines for children's growth. Additionally, war injuries, such as shrapnel wounds and related paralysis, have worsened children's health and hampered their ability to consume proper nutrition. The ongoing scarcity of medicines and medical supplies further hampers hospitals' capacity to provide timely treatment. The data shows that malnutrition weakens immunity and increases the risk of diseases, reflecting the ongoing humanitarian crisis caused by war and economic decline.
