TEHRAN (Defapress) - In a video, Mahmoud Basal, the spokesman for the Gaza Civil Defense, holding the body of a Palestinian child who died due to famine, says: This is just one of the children who died in Gaza due to hunger and malnutrition. Muhammad Yassin was a resident of Gaza who lost his life due to famine and the prevention of food and drinking water, and he is not the first child to die due to hunger; thousands of children are dying due to famine and lack of food.

"If aid, including food and drinking water, does not reach here, we will witness the death of many more people like this. This child should have lived, been happy and grown up; But Israel forbade him from living," he said.

He continued: "If there is any humanity left in humanitarian institutions and organizations, they must stop this suffering, otherwise we will see many more children die of hunger, joining Mohammed Yassin. I declare here that many people in Gaza are just a few steps away from death, simply because of the lack of food."
