Aid Workers, Doctors, Journalists Risk Starvation Alongside People in Gaza
GAZA STRIP, PALESTINE, JUL 24 – Over 100 aid groups report mass starvation in Gaza amid Israeli blockade that restricts humanitarian supplies and access, worsening the crisis for displaced civilians, officials say.
- Journalists, aid workers, and doctors in Gaza face severe starvation amid a worsening humanitarian crisis as of July 2025.
- This crisis arose after Israel imposed a strict blockade from March 2025 following its war with Hamas that began in October 2023.
- More than 110 international organizations reported mass starvation spreading, while over 1,000 Palestinians were killed near aid points trying to get food.
- Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus characterized the malnutrition crisis in Gaza as deliberately caused, while the Committee to Protect Journalists criticized Israel for enforcing conditions that have left Gazan reporters struggling with hunger and unable to work.
- These conditions have led to evacuation efforts for journalists, calls for lifting the blockade, and ongoing but stalled ceasefire talks mediated by multiple parties.
