The Gaza Ministry of Health has raised alarm over a rapidly deteriorating malnutrition crisis, particularly affecting children, pregnant women, and breastfeeding mothers.

Health officials reported that anemia rates have reached unprecedented levels, signaling a grave public health emergency. The ministry stressed that the worsening conditions are a direct result of acute shortages of food, medical supplies, and limited emergency response.

According to officials, thousands of lives are now at risk as hospitals and aid organizations struggle to cope with the overwhelming needs. The ministry has appealed to the international community for urgent humanitarian assistance to prevent further loss of life, describing the situation as catastrophic.
