Two Palestinians have starved to death in Gaza in the past 24 hours, which also saw 71 people killed in Israeli attacks across the enclave, according to the territory’s Health Ministry.

According to the Integrated Food Security Phase Classification (IPC), 514,000 people – nearly one in four Palestinians in Gaza – are already in famine conditions, with the number expected to rise to 641,000 by the end of September. In Gaza City alone, 280,000 people are starving following nearly two years of war between Israel and Hamas.
