Over 100 humanitarian groups, including Médecins Sans Frontières, Save the Children, and Oxfam, warn of mass starvation in Gaza due to Israel's blockade and military actions. The groups report severe malnutrition, especially among children and the elderly, and accuse Israel of serving Hamas' propaganda. The UN reports that almost 100,000 women and children suffer from severe acute malnutrition, and the WHO's director, Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, describes the situation as 'man-made mass starvation.' Israel rejects the accusations, claiming it facilitates aid entry while ensuring it doesn't reach Hamas. The humanitarian groups demand governments take decisive action to address the crisis.

US Ambassador to Israel Mike Huckabee criticizes nearly 30 Western countries for calling for an immediate end to the war in Gaza, siding with Hamas, a US and EU-designated terror group. Huckabee states that when Hamas praises a nation, that nation is doing evil. Israel's Foreign Minister Gidon Saar and Israeli opposition leader Benny Gantz also condemn the statement, blaming Hamas for the suffering of civilians in Gaza. The international community has come under fire for reports of people dying while attempting to receive aid or not receiving aid at all, with Israel refuting claims of using starvation as a tactic and instead working to prevent Hamas from stealing aid.
