HealthGaza malnutrition and starvation at ‘catastrophic’ levels: Health Ministry

The Palestinian Health Ministry says at least 466 Palestinians have died from malnutrition and starvation since 2024, with children making up one-third of the deaths. It projects that about 67 percent of Gaza’s population will face crisis-level food insecurity or worse through the end of 2026. UNICEF says progress against hunger remains fragile.
