Israel’s bombardment of Gaza has razed large parts of the enclave and displaced the majority of its 2.3 million residents, many now living in makeshift shelters without clean water and food and fighting diseases, Reuters reports.
Human Rights Watch has said Israel is using starvation as a weapon by deliberately blocking the delivery of water, food, fuel and razing agricultural areas.
“For over two months, Israel has been depriving Gaza’s population of food and water … reflecting an intent to starve civilians as a method of warfare,” Omar Shakir, Israel and Palestine director at Human Rights Watch said in a statement.
