The number of deaths from hunger in Gaza rises due to military actions

  • The total number of deaths from hunger in Gaza has reached 212 individuals.
  • Israel announced plans to capture Gaza City, which has provoked international condemnation.
  • More than 1,370 Palestinians have died, striving to obtain humanitarian assistance.

According to data provided by the Ministry of Health, controlled by Hamas, in the last 24 hours in Gaza, 11 more people died from hunger, which has increased the total number of deaths from this cause to 212, among which 98 are children. Simultaneously, as a result of military actions by Israel, in recent days, 38 individuals have been killed and 491 have been injured.

In the context of rising mortality, Israel announced plans to capture Gaza, including Gaza City, which has provoked international condemnation. This plan envisages the displacement of approximately one million Palestinians from their homes and control over the territory. Military actions, according to witnesses, are accompanied by the obstruction of humanitarian access for civilians trying to obtain humanitarian assistance.

According to UN data, since the beginning of the distribution in June, 1,373 Palestinians have been killed, striving to obtain food. Most of them died in the vicinity of humanitarian centers, which has caused serious concern among medical workers and international organizations. It is known that Israeli forces during the distribution of humanitarian aid are opening fire on the crowds, trying to obtain it.

It is noted that international cooperation has been limited to temporary actions to improve the humanitarian situation in Gaza, but the reality on the ground remains critical. Leaders of many countries have expressed their outrage regarding Israel's actions, which contribute to the worsening of the humanitarian crisis.
