For nearly 60 days, Israel has blocked food from Gaza. Palestinians struggle to feed their families
- Israel has blocked all food and humanitarian aid from entering Gaza for nearly 60 days, severely affecting about 2.3 million Palestinians.
- This blockade, imposed on March 2 and extended despite ceasefire attempts, aims to pressure Hamas over hostage releases and follows the resumption of military operations on March 18.
- As aid and commercial goods are refused entry, community kitchens struggle to feed growing crowds amid soaring food prices and shuttered bakeries, while acute child malnutrition cases surge sharply.
- The United Nations reported that nearly 3,700 children were diagnosed with acute malnutrition in March, representing an increase of over 80% compared to February, with some children losing up to half of their expected healthy body weight.
- The worsening humanitarian crisis suggests Gaza faces a man-made famine threatening tens of thousands, with aid groups ready to deliver assistance if access is granted.
