The ministry stated in a press release that three adult deaths were recorded in the past 24 hours due to famine and malnutrition.
“This brings the total number of victims of starvation and malnutrition to 266, including 112 children,” the statement added.
Despite Israel allowing a limited number of humanitarian aid and goods trucks to enter Gaza about three weeks ago, starvation continues. Most of these trucks are reportedly looted by gangs that the Gaza government claims are protected by Israel.
