United Nations agencies are now warning that the hunger crisis in Gaza is evolving into a famine, with growing evidence of starvation and malnutrition. The estimated 2 million Palestinians in Gaza have limited access to aid, facing the threat of being shot by Israeli soldiers as they make their way to crowded food-distribution points. Israel claims to have allowed 5,000 aid trucks into Gaza over the past two months, but aid groups are saying that’s far less than what is needed. According to NPR, Gaza health authorities are now reporting that more than 130 people in Gaza have died from “famine and malnutrition” since the war began.
