In Gaza, at least four Palestinians have starved to death over the past 24 hours, bringing the total number of malnutrition-related deaths to at least 197. The World Food Programme has warned food aid needs to be immediately flooded into Gaza to prevent mass starvation. This is Amira Muteir, a Palestinian mother in Gaza City. She decried the Israeli siege as she held her emaciated baby Ammar.

Amira Muteir: “If Israel doesn’t kill us with strikes and missiles, it is killing us by the famine it is creating. But I want to ask the entire world and the people who believe Israel and its lies: If there wasn’t a famine in Gaza, what made this baby reach this state? His bones are visible. The signs of death appear on him.”
This comes as Israeli settlers have attacked aid convoys coming from Jordan twice in recent days. During one of the attacks, settlers were filmed chanting, “May Palestine’s name be wiped out.” Over the past day, Israeli attacks killed at least 98 Palestinians across Gaza, including 51 aid seekers.
