Human Rights Watch has accused the Israeli government of using starvation as a method of warfare in the Gaza Strip, labeling it a war crime. The report, based on statements of Israeli officials, claims that more than half a million people in Gaza are 'starving' due to not enough food entering the territory since the outbreak of war over 10 weeks ago. The UN also released a report corroborating the claim, stating that over 570,000 people in Gaza are 'starving' because of the war. The severity of the hunger in Gaza is compared to near-famines in Afghanistan and Yemen.

Human Rights Watch today said that the Israeli government is using starvation of civilians as a method of warfare in Gaza. Let's be clear: this is a war crime. Political leaders should not stand by while Israel commits war crimes. They need to demand an immediate ceasefire.
