Palestinian minister reports 29 Gaza deaths from starvation
- The Palestinian health minister stated on Thursday that starvation-related deaths have claimed the lives of 29 children and elderly individuals in Gaza amid an 11-week blockade.
- In March, Israel implemented a complete blockade on supply deliveries, accusing Hamas of diverting aid shipments—a claim denied by the group—and after 11 weeks, it permitted a limited number of aid trucks into Gaza.
- Aid officials and Palestinian sources said the limited deliveries mostly included flour for bakeries and have not reached many civilians, leaving most without sufficient food or medical supplies.
- The U.N. Aid chief has highlighted that thousands of infants face fatal risks without urgent food assistance, while approximately 500 aid trucks per day are necessary to address severe shortages and prevent widespread starvation in Gaza.
- The deaths highlight a dire humanitarian crisis with thousands more at risk amid ongoing Israeli military operations and a health system close to collapse in Gaza.
