US EditionMalnutrition among children in Gaza spikes as Israel's blockade enters third month
- Since March 2024, Israel has sealed off all access points to the Gaza Strip, prohibiting the delivery of food, water, shelter, and medical supplies, while carrying out airstrikes in the area.
- The blockade followed Hamas's attack on Israel on October 7, 2023, and a subsequent Israeli freeze of aid to Gaza for two weeks to pressure Hamas to release 59 hostages.
- Gaza has been without essential supplies for nearly three months, with numerous aid trucks stuck at the border, while community kitchens close and families endure long waits for limited food rations.
- The UN has identified approximately ten thousand children suffering from severe acute malnutrition, food costs have surged by as much as 1,400%, and over 90% of Gaza’s residents have been forced to flee their homes.
- Israel plans to expand operations and remain in Gaza for an unspecified time despite calls for ceasefire renewals from families of hostages, highlighting a worsening humanitarian crisis.
