Gaza’s Hunger Crisis: 227 Dead as Malnutrition Surges, UN Warns

Gaza’s malnutrition crisis has claimed 227 lives, including 103 children, since October 2023, with five deaths reported in the last 24 hours, a UN spokesperson said. The World Food Programme warns hunger has hit record levels. Aid deliveries face severe delays and restrictions, with only four of 16 UN-requested missions approved recently, hampering efforts to meet urgent needs.
