The Gaza Health Ministry reported that at least 15 children have died from malnutrition and dehydration at the Kamal Adwan hospital, located in the northern Gaza Strip, while one in a hospital in the city of Rafah.

For his part, the director general of the World Health Organization (WHO), Tedros Adhanom Gebreyesu, reported on Monday about “grim findings” in northern Gaza where children were dying from acute malnutrition.

“Severe levels of malnutrition, children dying of hunger, severe shortages of fuel, food and medical supplies, destroyed hospital buildings,” Adhanom warned.

 

According to what was published on the HISPANTV website, the WHO noted that more than 700,000 people are facing hunger and death due to Israel's blockade of the arrival of aid.

So far, more than 30,600 Palestinians have been recorded as a result of the Israeli genocide in Gaza.
