Gaza: The death toll rose to 34.. 4 Palestinian citizens, including 2 children, died due to famine

Medical sources announced today, Sunday, the death of 4 citizens due to starvation in Kamal Adwan Hospital in the northern Gaza Strip, bringing the number of victims of malnutrition to 34 citizens.


The sources said: 4 citizens, including two children, died today, as a result of malnutrition, dehydration, and lack of medical supplies, at Kamal Adwan Hospital in Beit Lahia, northern Gaza Strip.


It pointed out that the number of deaths due to the famine had risen to 34, including 31 children.


The Gaza Strip has been subjected to continuous Israeli aggression, since October 7, and has been subjected to extremely difficult humanitarian conditions, amounting to famine, in light of the severe scarcity of food, water, medicine and fuel supplies.


As a result of the war, citizens, especially the Gaza and North governorates, are on the verge of famine, in light of a severe scarcity of food, water, medicine and fuel supplies, with the displacement of about two million Palestinians from the Gaza Strip, which has been besieged by Israel for 18 years.


The Israeli army continues to prevent and obstruct the arrival of humanitarian aid to the Gaza Strip, especially to the northern regions, while the aid that reaches the south of the Strip does not suffice the needs of citizens, especially with the displacement of more than 1.3 million citizens from northern Gaza to its south, specifically to Rafah.


The Israeli forces not only prevent the entry of humanitarian aid into the Gaza Strip, but also deliberately target citizens waiting for aid, resulting in the death and injury of hundreds.
