Gaza's Starving Search Garbage for Food

  • Israel launched a military campaign against Gaza after Hamas' October 7, 2023 attacks, cutting off all food and medicine supplies on March 2, 2024.
  • The nearly three-month blockade imposed by Israel sought to compel Hamas to free hostages but has driven Gaza’s 2.3 million residents to the brink of starvation.
  • As a result, children in Gaza are now searching through garbage for food and fuel, a behavior not seen before the blockade.
  • Abu Taeima, an educated mother from Shati refugee camp, said, "We're dying of hunger" and she must boil salvaged food for her five children.
  • The blockade’s severity and limited aid delivery have caused widespread hunger and desperation, prompting international criticism and worsening living conditions.
