3,500 children in Gaza risk dying from malnourishment, says Gaza government

Gaza's government said in a statement that 3,500 children are at risk of dying due to malnourishment as a result of Israel's war and siege on the Palestinian enclave. 

The government warns that aid is drying up due to the closure of border crossings and called on the international community and "all countries of the free world to condemn this crime, which … violates international law".
