This Monday, it was announced through the media office that more than 3,500 Palestinian children under the age of five are at risk of dying of hunger in the Gaza Strip due to Israel's hunger policy on the besieged territory.

The Palestinian media office noted “a serious shortage of milk and food, a lack of nutritional supplements and the denial of vaccines.”

He also denounced that humanitarian aid has been blocked for the fourth consecutive week, “in the midst of deafening international silence.”

On the other hand, he indicated that “335,000 children live in extremely difficult conditions due to genocide, displacement and other effects of Israeli aggression.”

The United Nations Agency for Palestine Refugees in the Middle East (UNRWA) said this Saturday that four out of five Gazan children under five were unable to eat for a full day, at least once, during the previous three days.
