Are Thousands Facing Starvation in Gaza as Food and Water Supplies Run Out?

The United Nations World Food Program has issued a warning that food and water supplies in Gaza are practically nonexistent, leading to widespread hunger and the collapse of food systems. Cindy McCain, the Executive Director of the WFP, stated that only a fraction of the needed supplies are arriving through the borders. The situation has become dire, with the Gaza Health Ministry reporting that over 11,100 Palestinians have been killed since the beginning of the war and communication blackouts hindering accurate counts. In addition, the IDF recently discovered the body of one of the hostages believed to have been kidnapped by Hamas near al-Shifa Hospital. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu claimed that there were strong indications that hostages had been held at the hospital, although they were not there when Israeli troops arrived. The U.S. Department of Education is also investigating alleged cases of Islamophobia and antisemitism at several universities and public schools. As conditions worsen in Gaza, the UN has had to stop delivering food and supplies due to the communications blackout and lack of fuel. Israel has partially lifted its restrictions on fuel and communications systems, but it is still not enough to meet the urgent needs of the people in Gaza.
