The Palestinian mother explains that amid Israel’s ongoing blockade of vital supplies and food, in addition to displacement orders, her son has lost almost half his body weight and now weighs 6kg. As Israel continues to restrict much-needed aid into Gaza, the entire population under the age of five in the besieged strip - more than 320,000 children - is at risk of acute malnutrition, due to a lack of safe water, breastmilk substitutes and therapeutic feeding. At least 6,500 children were admitted for malnutrition treatment in June, and a further 5,000 cases were recorded in the first two weeks of this month. As of Wednesday, 154 people - including 89 children - have died from Israeli-imposed starvation in Gaza since October 2023.
