Israeli army admits to destroying vast stockpiles of food and medicine meant for Gaza, as starvation deaths rise and global outrage mounts.

The United Nations and experts say that Palestinians in Gaza are at risk of famine, with reports of increasing numbers of people dying from causes related to malnutrition.

As Gaza’s hunger crisis deepens, doctors, the very people who are trying to keep the gravely malnourished population alive, are suffering along with their patients.

While France wins wide support in announcing a plan to recognize the State of Palestine, the United States is said to be dragging its feet by cutting short talks with the Hamas group aimed at reaching a truce in Gaza and covering Israel's interests, according to analysts.

Over 113 in Gaza have died from famine and malnutrition amid war, siege, and collapsing humanitarian aid routes.

In March, Israel cut off all shipments into the Gaza Strip, including food aid, when the ceasefire expired. Israel justified it as a tactical strategy to get Hamas to release more Israeli hostages as part of continuing negotiations.

What exactly is going on inside the Gaza strip? Amid growing reports of children starving to death and fears of full-blown famine, the international community appears to be becoming more critical of Israel.
