Seven more people have died from malnutrition in the Gaza Strip in the past 24 hours, the Hamas-run health ministry in the Palestinian territory has said.
It says the total number of malnutrition deaths since the start of the Israel-Hamas war in 2023 has now reached 154 – including 89 children.
On Tuesday, UN-backed global food security experts warned that the worst-case scenario of famine is “currently playing out” in Gaza.
Israel says it is not imposing restrictions on aid entering Gaza – those claims are not accepted by its close allies in Europe, the UN and other agencies active in Gaza.
Meanwhile, US special envoy Steve Witkoff will on Thursday travel to Israel to discuss the crisis.
