Скачать или смотреть Starvation in Gaza is a deliberate policy, Amnesty report reveals | MEE Explains

Children in Gaza are begging their parents for food that no longer exists. Many haven’t eaten bread in weeks.

A new Amnesty International report accuses Israel of deliberately using starvation as a weapon of war - a claim Israel denies, even as doctors on the ground describe malnourished children, mothers unable to breastfeed, and babies dying within days of birth.

Doctors warn this famine is not only killing children now, but will scar generations to come. Amnesty’s findings come amid mounting global concern, but indifference within Israel itself, where polls suggest most are untroubled by the crisis.

With more than 271 deaths from starvation already recorded, the report raises the question: will the world act, or simply add this to the list of ignored warnings?
