The development comes due to the ongoing closure of crossings by Israeli forces and “prevention of the entry of baby milk and nutritional supplements designated for vulnerable and weak groups, especially infants and the sick”, according to Gaza’s Government Media Office.
“This behaviour constitutes a war crime and a crime against humanity, and reveals the ‘Israeli’ occupation’s deliberate use of starvation as a weapon to exterminate civilians, especially children, in flagrant violation of international humanitarian law and the Geneva Conventions,” it added.
