A spokesman for Al-Aqsa Martyrs Hospital, Khalil Al-Daqran, spoke to Al Jazeera about the ongoing hunger crisis in the besieged enclave. Here’s a summary of his translated comments:

  • Israel systematically targets hospitals in the Gaza Strip.

  • At least 60,000 children are suffering from malnutrition because of a lack of food.

  • Israel is subjecting the children of Gaza to a policy of starvation.

  • Currently, there is not a single carton of milk available for children in the Gaza Strip.
