Israel’s military offensive on Gaza has killed more than 80 Palestinians today, including aid seekers, as hunger continues to claim lives across the enclave. The Gaza Health Ministry reports that starvation has now killed at least 188 people, with 94 children among them. 1

Health officials: “Six additional people died of malnutrition in the last 24 hours, raising the total hunger‑related deaths to 188, including 94 children.” 2

🌍 Humanitarian Crisis Deepens

Nearly all of Gaza is facing famine-like conditions. Aid agencies warn that only around 100 trucks enter daily—far below the 600–700 needed. Emergency medical care is collapsing under fuel shortages, looting, and destruction of infrastructure. 3

Thousands of Palestinians have been killed while seeking food—many shot at distribution points. Israel has defended its actions, stating it aims to protect against crowding at aid sites. But aid workers say convoys are frequently attacked or hijacked by armed groups. 4

🏛️ Political Tensions & Regional Backlash

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is reportedly considering a full military takeover of Gaza, a move condemned by former Israeli security chiefs who warn it could further destabilize the region and endanger hostages. 5

International outrage is mounting. Countries including the UK, France, and Canada are pressing for recognition of a Palestinian state. The UN and Human Rights Watch have accused Israeli forces of converting aid distribution zones into deadly traps—amounting to war crimes. 6

⚠️ In Summary

  • Over **80 killed today** in Israeli airstrikes, including dozens of aid seekers.
  • **Starvation deaths** now exceed 188, with 94 children reported among them.
