TL;DR Summary

More than 25 children in Gaza have reportedly died from malnutrition, with hundreds of thousands more at risk of starvation due to Israel's ongoing siege. The lack of nourishment, ongoing bombing, infectious diseases, and psychological trauma are condemning the surviving children to a lifetime of health issues, including stunted growth and impaired brain development. Humanitarian officials have warned of an "imminent" famine in Gaza, urging Israel to allow more food to enter, but Israel denies limiting aid and blames the United Nations and Hamas. The lack of aid has left children wasting away in hospitals without enough food or medicine, with severe long-term consequences expected for the children of Gaza.
