Palestinians in Gaza face starvation as Israel blocks aid and opens fire on aid seekers

More than 90 children have died from hunger in Gaza, including two on Thursday, despite Israeli claims of increased aid. Families are so desperate they risk death to reach food trucks, often coming under Israeli fire. In the past 24 hours, 91 Palestinians were killed while waiting for aid. Starvation now haunts every neighbourhood. Although Israel says it is allowing more aid in, very few trucks are arriving, and many are looted by criminal gangs. UN agencies warn that only a full ceasefire can ensure aid reaches those in need. Gaza's humanitarian crisis continues to worsen.

Al Jazeera's Tariq Abu Azzoum reports from Deir el-Balah in central Gaza, on a population pushed to the brink, where hunger is weaponised and children go to bed without food.
