A severe hunger crisis is gripping Gaza, with over 1,000 Palestinians reportedly killed by Israeli forces since May while trying to access food aid, according to the United Nations and local health officials. Multiple incidents have seen Israeli troops open fire on crowds of desperate civilians waiting at aid distribution sites, resulting in dozens of deaths in single days. The UN and humanitarian organizations warn that the blockade and attacks on aid convoys have pushed Gaza to the brink of famine, with children and adults dying from starvation and exhaustion. Eyewitnesses and medical staff describe harrowing scenes of people fainting from hunger and being shot while holding white flags or queuing for food. International condemnation is mounting, with calls for urgent action to prevent further loss of life and to ensure safe delivery of humanitarian aid.
