The founder of the Palestine Children's Relief Fund raised awareness about children in Gaza dying of starvation, whose deaths are not counted among the thousands killed by Israeli strikes.
“Today, I got this email telling me his son died from hunger in Gaza. Khalil will not be counted among the 10,000 children killed through bombings, but just as dead. May God rest his soul,” Steve Sosebee said.
The Palestinian Ministry of Health announced on Thursday that the death toll in Gaza since the start of the war on 7 October has now reached 18,787, with about two-thirds women and children.
The ministry added that 50,897 Palestinians have also been wounded in the same time frame.
