At least 81 Palestinians were killed in a single day of Israeli attacks on Gaza, while 30 others died while attempting to collect humanitarian aid. The Israeli military has launched a ground offensive to seize Gaza City, where nearly one million people remain trapped in dire conditions. Meanwhile, three more Palestinians died of hunger on Wednesday, bringing the total starvation-related death toll to 269—including 112 children. The World Food Programme (WFP) warned: “This is not just hunger—it is starvation.” The UN Relief and Works Agency (UNRWA) reported that one in three children in Gaza City now suffers from malnutrition. Israeli human rights group Gisha accused the government of deliberately blocking aid and using starvation as a weapon of war, while attempting to deflect blame through false justifications.
