Death toll of Palestinians from starvation rises to 251
The death toll from Israeli-imposed starvation in the Gaza Strip has risen to 251, including 108 children, according to the Palestinian health officials. They said that "Gaza hospitals recorded 11 deaths within 24 hours, including a child, due to acute malnutrition." Since early March, Israel has imposed a near total blockade on the entry of food and humanitarian assistance into Gaza. In recent days, Israel has allowed in small quantities of aid, though it is far below the needs of starving Palestinians. The World Food Programme recently warned that "a third of Gaza's 2.4m population "has not eaten for several days".

Gaza Strip: Malnutrition causes developmental issues for life in children, says Oxfam
Malnutrition in children causes lifelong developmental issues, Oxfam's humanitarian response adviser for the Gaza Strip told Irish public broadcaster RTE on Friday. Chris McIntosh told RTÉ's Morning Ireland, "Malnutrition in children is a severe problem because it can cause developmental issues". "Unlike adults, they don't have the ability to spring back from a period of undernutrition and this affects brain development and a host of other health issues that will be with them for the rest of their lives". "To smell food being cooked is also a total novelty these days," McIntosh added. McIntosh also said seeing people eating food was rare, and children were reduced to searching for food in bins. Oxfam was one of more than 100 NGOs that signed a letter saying that new Israeli legislation regulating aid groups is being used to refuse their requests to bring supplies into Gaza. McIntosh added that Israel's claim that aid trucks waiting to enter Gaza do not meet security standards is false.
