Gaza's humanitarian crisis has reached alarming new heights as health authorities confirmed four additional starvation-related deaths on Thursday, bringing the total fatalities from malnutrition and food shortages to 115 since March. The enclave's collapsing infrastructure and restricted aid access have left residents increasingly desperate.
A Gaza refugee from Nuseirat camp described waiting hours for basic supplies: "The crossings are closed. There's nothing we can do." His account reflects widespread frustration among displaced families struggling to secure sustenance amid prolonged border closures and disrupted supply chains.
Medical workers report children and elderly residents are particularly vulnerable to acute malnutrition, with hospital admissions for starvation-related complications rising steadily. International organizations continue urging immediate humanitarian corridors to prevent further loss of life.
