Rights group Amnesty International has accused Israel of enacting a “deliberate policy” of starvation in Gaza, citing testimonies of displaced Palestinians and medical staff treating malnourished children in the territory, AFP reports.
Contacted by AFP, the military and foreign ministry did not immediately comment on Amnesty’s findings.
According to the group’s report, “Israel is carrying out a deliberate campaign of starvation in the occupied Gaza Strip, systematically destroying the health, well-being and social fabric of Palestinian life. “
