Doctors at Nasser Hospital in Gaza are seeing a daily influx of severely malnourished children, with some dying from starvation-related causes despite having no preexisting health conditions. The Gaza Health Ministry reports that 42 children have died from malnutrition since July 1, and the United Nations warns that the crisis has reached its highest levels since the war began. While Israel has recently increased the amount of food entering Gaza, experts say this may not be enough to save children who are already severely malnourished, as they require specialized medical treatment and supplements. Families describe desperate struggles to find food and care amid repeated displacement and ongoing military operations, with doctors emphasizing that malnutrition is the main factor in the deaths of many children. The situation remains dire, with aid workers and medical professionals warning that further offensives could worsen food shortages and lead to more preventable deaths among Gaza's most vulnerable.
