The blockade by Israel has led to a man-made famine in Gaza, with starvation deaths escalating daily to at least 258, including 110 children. From March to mid-May, Israel sealed Gaza's crossings, preventing essential food, water, and humanitarian aid from entering. This blockade has created extreme shortages among an already fragile population, resulting in severe hunger and dehydration. Over 100 aid organizations have criticized Israel's obstruction of assistance, while Amnesty International accuses Israel of enacting a deliberate policy of starvation and perpetuating conditions aimed at inflicting harm on the Palestinian population. The ongoing blockade has restricted aid flow, significantly impacting the living conditions of those relying on humanitarian assistance.
