According to the Gaza Health Ministry, 21 people in Gaza ranging from 1 day to 72 years old have died from malnutrition and dehydration. However, the humanitarian group Defense for Children International - Palestine (DCIP) warned that “the true death toll due to starvation is feared to be much higher as many Palestinians, particularly in northern Gaza, face famine and are almost entirely cut off from the limited humanitarian aid entering Gaza through the southern Rafah crossing.”
United Nations, Palestinian, and humanitarian officials have called Israel’s deliberate starvation of Palestinians a key component of the genocide in Gaza, while limited aid airdrops by Jordan and the United States have been described as woefully inadequate and a “theater of cruelty.”
How do you exterminate an entire population? You can use zyklon B chambers. But inescapable famine works too. Not sure which one stresses the victim out more.
The zylkon B was only needeed because the concentration camp wasn’t large enough to slowly starve everyone to death. That would have taken Hitler years. Lucky israel had years of preparation to build a far larger concentration camp than Hitler ever had.
