Malnutrition among children in Gaza spikes as Israel's blockade enters third month
- Since March 2025, Israel has sealed off all access points to the Gaza Strip, preventing the delivery of essential supplies such as food, water, shelter, and medicine amid continuous airstrikes.
- The blockade aims to pressure Hamas, which attacked Israel on October 7, 2023, and still holds 59 hostages in Gaza.
- Gaza faces a deepening humanitarian crisis as community kitchens close, bakeries run out of fuel, families queue for small food portions, and aid trucks wait at the border.
- The UN reports about 10,000 acute child malnutrition cases and a 1,400% rise in food prices, while more than 90% of Gaza’s population has been displaced.
- Israel plans to expand operations and control Gaza longer, defying ceasefire calls from hostage families despite rising looting and worsening civilian conditions.
