Gaza – Ma’an – A child died on Saturday afternoon in Khan Yunis, south of the Gaza Strip, due to malnutrition and lack of treatment, bringing the number of children who have died due to malnutrition to 37.

Medical sources said that the child, Yaqeen Al-Astal, died as a result of malnutrition, dehydration, and lack of supplies.

The Gaza Strip, which has been subjected to continuous Israeli aggression since October 7, is experiencing extremely difficult humanitarian conditions, reaching the point of famine, amid a severe shortage of food, water, medicine and fuel supplies.

The occupation forces do not only prevent the entry of humanitarian aid into the Gaza Strip, but they also deliberately target citizens while they are waiting for this aid to arrive, which has resulted in the martyrdom and injury of hundreds.
