5 hunger-related deaths in past 24 hours: Gaza health ministry

Gaza’s health ministry has reported that five people have died “due to famine and malnutrition” in the past 24 hours, according to Al Jazeera.

The latest count pushed the total number of hunger-related deaths to 193, including 96 children.

The United Nations and aid agencies have repeatedly warned that the aid going into the enclave is minuscule and not nearly enough to alleviate the ongoing hunger crisis.
