At least 83 people were killed in Gaza on Tuesday, including 58 Palestinians trying to get food—30 in Zikim and 15 near Morag, north of Rafah.

A 13-year-old boy, Tamer Shaheber, died from malnutrition in Deir al-Balah, bringing the total starvation deaths since the war began to 188.

Israeli jets bombed the Hamad residential area in Khan Younis.

Over 60,000 people have died since the war’s start, with more than 1,000 killed while seeking aid recently.

Despite international calls to increase food supplies, Israel’s strikes continue unabated.

On Monday, only 95 aid trucks entered Gaza—about 14% of the 600 daily trucks needed to meet basic needs.
