Gaza is Being Starved
All of Gaza is being starved by the Israeli occupation.

The UNRWA Commissioner-General Philippe Lazzarini stated that: The famine in Gaza is the result of a deliberate attempt to replace the UN System of distribution with the so-called “Gaza humanitarian mechanism”.
The current aid mechanism is politically driven and is responsible for the deaths of around 1,400 starving people in Gaza. The situation has worsened as UNRWA has been prevented from bringing any aid into Gaza for the past five months.
The marginalization and weakening of UNRWA has nothing to do with allegations of aid being diverted to armed groups. The deliberate weakening of UNRWA is aimed at exerting collective pressure and punishing Palestinians simply for remaining in Gaza.
