“Hunger Is Killing Gaza’s Children: A Genocidal Massacre Committed by the Zionist Enemy in Full View of the World”

In a scene that evokes the most horrific sieges and crimes of slow death, the Zionist enemy continues to carry out a fully‑fledged genocide against the Palestinian people in Gaza—using starvation and blockade as weapons of war to exterminate children, women, and the sick—while the United Nations remains silent and key backers, led by the United States, stand complicit.

Sixty‑Nine Children Starve to Death… Hundreds Perish in Silence

The Gaza Ministry of Health and the Government Media Office report that 69 children have now died of malnutrition, and 620 patients have succumbed to the combined effects of food and medicine shortages. Unprecedented numbers of families are flooding Gaza’s emergency departments in a state of utter exhaustion, victims of acute hunger and the near‑total collapse of the food supply—yet not a hand of mercy extends from the so‑called “civilized” world.

In one of the most brutal manifestations of silent killing, today a one‑and‑a‑half‑year‑old infant girl in Deir al‑Balah died from malnutrition—an event tragically repeated in recent hours—underscoring that famine in Gaza has ceased to be a looming threat and has become a lethal reality.

The Numbers Speak… The Enemy Besieges Even Breaths

A government media report reveals that over 139 days of total closure, the occupier has blocked the entry of 76,450 aid and fuel trucks, struck 42 community kitchens and 57 aid‑distribution centers, and launched 121 attacks on relief convoys.

Among these horrors, 877 aid‑seekers have been killed and more than 5,666 wounded while attempting to reach “aid centers,” which have been transformed into death traps.

According to official figures:

• 650,000 children face the threat of death from starvation and malnutrition.

• 12,500 cancer patients are at immediate risk of dying for lack of treatment.

• 60,000 pregnant women—and their unborn children—are in grave danger due to the absence of healthcare and nutrition.

Resistance Factions: Famine in Gaza Is the Product of Systematic Zionist‑American Aggression

In separate statements, Palestinian factions condemned the crime of deliberate starvation and slow killing, declaring that Gaza is experiencing a methodical genocide orchestrated by the Zionist occupier with U.S. backing—and tacit approval from certain Western capitals.

Resistance committees warned that famine has reached catastrophic levels, threatening every household in Gaza as people collapse in the streets in search of a morsel—while food distribution centers are bombed, and border crossings remain forcibly sealed.

They added:

“The Zionist enemy would never have escalated its atrocities without international silence, European complicity, and unlimited American support.”
They urged Arab and Islamic peoples to ignite a comprehensive intifada to rescue Palestine from starvation and aggression.

Meanwhile, the Palestinian Mujahideen Movement called this policy of starvation “a stain on the conscience of the international community and of humanity itself,” demanding immediate collective action by the Islamic ummah to halt these slow‑motion massacres.

UNRWA: Malnutrition Mounts and Children’s Health Crashes to Unprecedented Lows

Highlighting the disaster’s scale, UNRWA reported that child malnutrition in Gaza has multiplied several times since last March. Its health teams have conducted over 74,000 child screenings in recent months, uncovering approximately 5,500 cases of severe acute malnutrition and more than 800 cases of life‑threatening emergency malnutrition.

UNRWA further disclosed that one in ten screened children suffers from malnutrition—a health deterioration unseen until this crisis.

The agency warned the humanitarian situation in Gaza has reached a critical breaking point, with medical and food stocks, as well as hygiene supplies, dangerously depleted—threatening a full health‑system collapse.

Crime of the Century… and the World Remains Silent

These facts lay bare how the Zionist enemy wields hunger as a weapon to subjugate the Palestinian people, repeating a dirty war on humanity. Amid this grim tableau, Palestinian leaders and Gaza’s official bodies intensify calls to break the blockade at once, allow unconditional humanitarian access, and halt the aggression that now targets people’s bodies after tearing them apart.

What is unfolding in Gaza is not merely a humanitarian crisis but a war crime of genocidal magnitude—a Zionist‑American project to impose extermination rather than pursue solutions. It reaffirms that the occupier knows only killing, siege, and starvation—and that it understands only the language of deterrence and resistance.

Humanity Suffocates in Gaza… with America a Direct Accomplice

The ongoing onslaught and blockade, the denial of food and medicine, and the targeting of relief operations—turning Gaza into an open‑air prison of slow death—cannot be divorced from U.S. cover and Western support. Freedoms‑loving peoples must recognize that breaking the siege is an urgent religious, humanitarian, and moral imperative—and that remaining silent today is complicity in betrayal. The world must act swiftly and decisively to end the Zionist aggression and lift the siege on Gaza’s besieged population.
