Gaza – Government Media Office in Gaza reports 115 deaths due to famine and malnutrition, citing near-total absence of food, water, and medical supplies in the Strip.

Office warns famine worsening and denounces false claims about aid entering Gaza.

Calls on international community to immediately lift siege and deliver infant formula and humanitarian aid to 2.4 million besieged civilians.

International Rescue Committee:

We are horrified by reports of children and infants dying of hunger in Gaza.

What’s unfolding is a man-made hunger crisis, driven by tight restrictions and near-total blockade on aid.

Food, water, and fuel must be allowed in for over 2 million people in urgent need.

More details to follow.
