Gaza’s Ministry of Health has reported that three more people have died of starvation in the past 24 hours. Since October 7 of last year, the total number of deaths from hunger has risen to 303, including 117 children.
During the same period, at least 75 Palestinians have been killed in Israeli attacks. The ministry stated that 17 of the deceased were individuals seeking humanitarian aid.
Meanwhile, in the Israeli-occupied West Bank, Israeli forces conducted a raid in central Ramallah, firing bullets and stun grenades. At least three Palestinians were injured, including a 12-year-old child who was shot in the back, according to the Palestinian news agency WAFA.
The Palestine Red Crescent Society reported that the severely injured child was quickly taken to a hospital.
Human rights organizations have stated that the prolonged blockade and ongoing attacks in Gaza have created a severe shortage of food and medicine, with the situation becoming increasingly dire.
