Dozens of children die of hunger in Gaza

At least 69 children have died of malnutrition in Gaza as Israel continues its blockade on water and essential items such as baby food, Gaza’s government media office said in a statement on Friday. “We condemn this ongoing crime in the strongest terms and hold the Israeli occupation fully responsible for it, along with the countries involved in this genocide through silence, complicity, or direct support, most notably the United States, Germany and France,” it said.
