A UN official confirmed on Friday that children in Gaza are starving due to Israel's deliberate starvation policy, which has continued to close the Strip's crossings and prevent the entry of food and other essential goods since March 2.
This came according to what the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees (UNRWA) reported from its Commissioner-General, Philippe Lazzarini, in a post on the "X" platform.
"In Gaza, children are starving," Lazzarini said.
He continued: "The Israeli government continues to prevent the entry of food and other essentials. This is a man-made, politically motivated starvation."
