With over 1,000 killed near aid sites and 81 children dead from hunger, Gaza faces a man-made humanitarian collapse

Over 113 in Gaza have died from famine and malnutrition amid war, siege, and collapsing humanitarian aid routes.

At least 61 people were killed this weekend, including some who were waiting in line for aid, “a number of starving children” and a group recovered in Khan Younis, according to a spokesperson for Gaza’s Health Ministry.

The Israel Defense Forces announced Saturday it would conduct air drops into Gaza following calls from humanitarian groups about the growing malnutrition.

Supplies of Ready-to-Use Therapeutic Food, a crucial treatment, would be depleted by mid-August if nothing changed.

According to Palestinian health officials, more than 100 Palestinians in Gaza have died from hunger and malnutrition since the beginning of the war, most of them in recent weeks as Israel's blockade of aid allowed into the region continues.
