"Imminent Famine Threatens Gaza as Starving Children Overwhelm Hospitals"

In Gaza, children like six-year-old Fadi al-Zant are suffering from acute malnutrition and starvation as a result of widespread shortages of food, medicines, and clean water following Israel's ground and air campaign. More than 27 children have died of malnutrition and dehydration, with over 1 million Palestinians seeking refuge from the offensive. Aid agencies warn that without urgent action, famine will hit northern Gaza by May, and nearly 1 in 3 children under two years old in the region suffer from acute malnutrition. The dire lack of food, compounded by disease and lack of medical supplies, is leading to a devastating humanitarian crisis.
