US EditionFor nearly 60 days, Israel has blocked food from Gaza. Palestinians struggle to feed their families
- Since Israel imposed a blockade on Gaza on March 2, families like Wedad Abdelaal’s have faced severe food shortages amid ongoing conflict.
- The blockade followed Israel ending a two-month ceasefire on March 18 to pressure Hamas to release hostages, leading to Gaza’s sealed borders and bombings.
- Nearly half of Gaza’s 200 nutrition centers closed due to displacement and bombardments, with hospitals admitting only critical malnutrition cases like Abdelaal’s 9-month-old son Khaled.
- UNICEF and health officials warn wasting, the deadliest malnutrition form, will increase, with Jonathan Crickx stating, “more children dying from these preventable causes.”
- The blockade and food shortage have caused widespread starvation and worsening health, leaving children unable to grow or walk and families struggling to survive in Gaza.

Daily PressColumn: Out of food and under constant attack, we Gazans are dying every day
No words can better capture the reality in Gaza today than this: We are dying. Every day, in every imaginable way, we die. Death comes by missile, by gunshot, by collapsed building, by lack of medicine and by fear. And now, once again, it will come by hunger as Israel has closed off humanitarian supplies — with the agreement of not just the Trump administration but also the tacit support of the people of the U.S. and Europe who elected governmen…
There is hunger in Gaza. For two months now, Israel has been holding a relentless siege around the Gaza Strip, where access to food and humanitarian aid is prohibited. The aim is to further corner Hamas terrorists, but the consequences are also being paid by the two million Gazans on the ground. The food shortage and the price of the most basic goods has become inaccessible to a population whose unemployment rate is almost 70%. Amnesty Internati…
