Government Media Office in Gaza refutes lies of Israeli occupation government coordinator
Gaza – Saba: Today, Tuesday, the Government Media Office in the Gaza Strip refuted the lies spread by the Coordinator of Government Activities of the Israeli occupation regarding the deliberate starvation policy imposed on the civilian population in Gaza. In a statement received by the Yemen News Agency (SABA), the office described the Israeli coordinator's statement as nothing but a baseless leap and a desperate attempt to cover up an internationally documented crime—the systematic starvation of Gaza's more than 2.4 million residents, in blatant violation of the Geneva Conventions and international humanitarian law. The statement added: 'The Israeli enemy resorted to falsifying facts through misleading narratives aimed at the public and international opinion, cherry-picking individual cases in a foolish and failed attempt to obscure the full-scale humanitarian catastrophe.' The Government Media Office in Gaza outlined ten facts that expose and refute the false claims made by the Israeli coordinator. Regarding internationally documented field facts, the office stressed that all international organizations and United Nations agencies—including the World Food Program, OCHA, and the World Health Organization—have officially reported that levels of hunger and malnutrition in Gaza have reached severe stages of famine. Hundreds of martyrs, including dozens of children, have died due to hunger and lack of food and medicine caused by the closure of crossings, the imposition of a total blockade, the prevention of food and aid entry. These are neutral international testimonies, not statements from any particular government or faction, as falsely claimed by the Israeli enemy. Concerning chronic diseases, which do not exempt responsibility, the Government Media Office pointed out that the Israeli enemy claimed some martyrs suffered from chronic illnesses to absolve itself, but international law is clear: even chronic patients require food, medical care, and medicines, all of which the enemy has deprived them of through its blockade and the ban on their entry into Gaza. It confirmed that 'the deaths of these people are a direct result of malnutrition and lack of medicine, making the enemy fully responsible. Even those who left for treatment before the war returned to a besieged environment without food or medicine, which hastened their death.' Regarding the accuracy of the Palestinian health figures and their natural rise, the office stressed that the numbers issued by the Palestinian Ministry of Health are precise and documented according to clear health standards. The rise in death toll is a natural development due to the ongoing siege and food ban: after four deaths in the early months of the war when some stock remained, the number rose to 50 following the tightening of the blockade, and now has reached 168 deaths from hunger since the complete ban on food entry on March 2, 2025, and total depletion of supplies. The blockade crime has been documented in sound and image since the first day of the war, when the enemy closed crossings, prevented food and medicine entry, destroyed farms, warehouses, and bakeries, and wiped out the agricultural and livestock sectors. The office noted that annual vegetable production dropped from 405,000 tons to only 28,000 tons for 2.4 million people. It further stated that the Israeli enemy destroyed 665 cattle, sheep, and poultry farms, targeted aid convoys by detaining them and stealing their contents—an unprecedented humanitarian crime. 'These are not Palestinian narratives but facts documented by audio-visual evidence and international organizations' testimonies, all stemming from the Israeli enemy's deliberate decision to starve Gaza's population,' it said. The Government Media Office highlighted that the Israeli enemy did not stop at blocking aid but deliberately bombed 44 charitable food kitchens ('takiyas'), killing dozens of workers. It targeted 57 food distribution centers and opened fire on queues of hungry people at 'aid points,' turning them into 'death traps' as part of a systematic starvation policy. It pointed to official admissions by Israeli leaders of the starvation policy against the Palestinian people in Gaza. Ministers in the Israeli government publicly and on record acknowledged the siege policy. For example, the Israeli Defense Minister stated: 'We will cut off everything from Gaza: no electricity, no food, no water, no gas.' Extremist ministers Itamar Ben-Gvir and Bezalel Smotrich declared: 'We will not let a single grain of wheat into Gaza.' Some even called for using nuclear bombs against Gaza's residents, all of which is documented with sound, images, and videos across various media outlets. Regarding the continued ban and the more than 430 prohibited food items, the Government Media Office in Gaza said: 'Despite international pressure that led the enemy to allow some trucks to enter on Sunday, July 27, 2025, it still bans over 430 food items, including various frozen meats, frozen fish, cheeses, dairy products, frozen vegetables, fruits, and hundreds of other items needed by the starving and the sick.' On the ban of journalists from covering the crime, the office confirmed that since the start of the genocide, the Israeli enemy has prohibited foreign journalists and international media officials from entering Gaza, aiming to conceal the crimes of extermination, starvation, forced displacement, and destruction. 'Even after announcing permission to enter, it retracted the decision, indicating its fear of exposing the facts on the ground and the failure of its narrative from the start,' it added. The office said the Israeli enemy's narrative has been exposed worldwide, with global populations fully aware of the deception and lies it practices, while the credibility of the Palestinian narrative is confirmed by international delegations and UN field reports, witnessed live on TV with sound and image. It noted that the Israeli enemy's image in global awareness has become a symbol of organized crimes and international isolation, with its global image no less contemptible than the image of the shoe thrown on the ground. The Government Media Office in Gaza reiterated that everything in the Israeli coordinator's statement is a failed attempt to hide the truth, which confirms that Israel uses food as a weapon of war, killing civilians slowly through starvation , siege in a documented genocide that requires urgent international intervention to stop and hold perpetrators accountable before international justice. It is worth noting that Palestinians in Gaza are currently facing an unprecedented wave of hunger since the Israeli enemy closed the crossings of the Strip in early March and imposed strict restrictions on the entry of food aid, relief supplies, fuel, and medicine. Over time, Gaza's residents exhausted all food resources; stores became empty, and finding a loaf of bread became almost impossible. Available goods witnessed exorbitant price hikes, making 'death by hunger' one of the most severe causes of death in the Strip. With U.S. and European support, since October 7, 2023, the Israeli army continues to commit genocide crimes in Gaza, resulting in the martyrdom of 61,599 Palestinian civilians, mostly children and women, and injuring 154,088 others, with thousands of victims still trapped under rubble and in streets inaccessible to rescue teams.

Children of Gaza: Emaciated Bodies, Sunken Eyes, and Lives Ravaged by Zionist Starvation
Gaza – SABA The death of children from hunger in Gaza is no longer a metaphor—it has become a deadly reality, the result of genocide and starvation policies imposed by the Israeli enemy on more than a million starving children in the besieged Strip. Due to the brutal starvation strategy employed by the Israeli occupation, Gaza's children—whose bodies have wasted away from hunger—are facing the threat of slow and painful death. The Palestinian Information Center continues to document the suffering of Gaza's children under siege and amid the destruction inflicted by the Israeli occupation. Among these is an image of a malnourished Palestinian girl sleeping under a tattered blanket at a shelter school in northern Gaza. The girl's mother has nothing to feed her but crumbs of dry bread. She has no words to soothe her child's hunger-induced crying—only the silence of a mother who is starving herself. The World Food Programme has recorded over 1,700 child deaths since January 2024 due to hunger and lack of medical care. According to UN statistics, 90% of children in Gaza suffer from severe food shortages. Some 82% go to bed hungry every night, while 34% of children under five years old are experiencing acute malnutrition. Malnutrition is visible in their skeletal frames, sunken eyes, and hair loss. More tragically, it manifests in the deteriorating mental and psychological health of children whose only crime is being the target of a brutal, inhuman Israeli war machine. Infant mortality has surged alarmingly due to the absence of baby formula and the inability of mothers to breastfeed—both direct consequences of Israel's starvation campaign. In another catastrophic figure, the death rate of children under five has risen by 45% compared to last year. While 68% of Gazan families survive on one meal or less per day, many forgo their own portions to give what little they have to their starving children. The psychological trauma inflicted by the Israeli occupation on children is no less severe than the physical suffering from hunger. According to UN reports, thousands of children are now suffering from severe psychological disorders, including anxiety, depression, and post-traumatic stress—conditions made worse by the near-total absence of support or mental health services. Starvation in Gaza is not a natural disaster—it is a crime of genocide, perpetrated by a monstrous enemy, enabled by American partnership, Western complicity, and global silence. Israeli forces have been killing hungry children seeking food in front of aid distribution centers. These killings are being carried out in concert with the United States, just as other civilians seeking assistance have been targeted. The Palestinian Centre for Human Rights has uncovered shocking testimonies from boys who were arrested by Israeli forces while attempting to collect food aid at what they described as 'death traps' operated jointly with Washington. Amid this ongoing starvation and genocidal campaign targeting Gaza's children, only faint humanitarian voices are being heard—voices that do not begin to match the scale of the crime. These voices call for immediate action: to open humanitarian corridors, fund nutrition programs, and provide infant formula and dietary supplements. A UN report revealed that among 14,750 malnourished children in Gaza, 3,288 are suffering from severe acute malnutrition. According to the Gaza Ministry of Health on Tuesday, the total death toll from starvation and malnutrition has risen to 188—94 of them children. Palestinians in Gaza are enduring an unprecedented wave of hunger since Israel closed all border crossings in early March and imposed harsh restrictions on the entry of food, aid, fuel, and medicine. As time passes, Gaza's residents have exhausted all food supplies. Shops have been emptied, bread has become nearly impossible to find, and the prices of what little remains have skyrocketed. Starvation has now become not just a cause of death—but one of the most brutal. Israeli crimes against Palestinians waiting for aid continue daily, particularly since the implementation of the U.S.-Israeli 'humanitarian mechanism' managed by the so-called 'Gaza Relief Foundation' began on May 27.
