Boy dies of starvation in Gaza as humanitarian crisis deepens

A four-year-old boy died from malnutrition in Gaza early on Sunday after food and medicine supplies to the enclave dried up as a result of Israel’s blockade. In recent days, Israel has allowed in a small amount of aid after banning shipments since March 2, but dozens of the aid lorries have been looted as law and order break down amid desperate conditions. UN Secretary General Antonio Guterres has warned that the entire population of 2.3 million are at risk of famine.
