EPAAccording to the Ministry of Health managed by Hamas, 11 more deaths caused by malnutrition in Gaza were reported.
This brings the number of deaths related to total malnutrition, including 98 children, to 212.
The Ministry of Health said that at least 38 people were killed and 491 were injured as a result of Israeli military activity in the last 24 hours.
The deaths continue to rise in papers that a deadline of 7 October 2025 was determined to evacuate the Gaza City after the announcement of a controversial Israeli plan to seize the control of the region.
The new plan, approved by the Israeli Security Cabinet and announced in detail on Friday, lists five “principles” to end the war in Gaza and one is “taking security control of the region”.
Reports in the Israeli media say that the plan was initially focused on seizing the full control of the Gaza City and placed an estimated one million inhabitants south.
The plan was greeted with criticisms from the world leaders and a violent opposition, including the families of some of the military officials in Israel, and the families of the hostages that are still afraid of safety in Gaza.
Israel rejected the criticism by saying that Defense Minister Israel Katz “will not weaken our determination”.
The United States was less critical – Donald Trump said whether it was “up to Israel” at the beginning of the week.
The Israeli media reported that the government has set a two -month deadline from the military siege of the Gaza City to begin on October 7, 2025, the two -year anniversary of the beginning of the war.
Within these two months, Israel plans to force the estimated one million Palestinians in the city of Gaza, which is half of the number of people living in the entire region.
Gaza City is the capital of the Gaza Strip. The pre -war population was estimated to be about 600,000 people, but the number of Israel’s military campaign pushed Palestinians to the city.
Many of the living there have now been displaced many times during the war, and Israel lives in tents or remains of buildings, partially destroyed by air strikes.
The Israeli media reported that the population of the army would move to El-Mawasi, a large tent camp in the south of Gaza, which is home to thousands of Palestinians, south of Gaza, south of Gaza.
The plan is widely condemned by humanitarian agencies and indeed most Israel’s allies, because of the potential to add human suffering on the shoulders of an already exhausted and surrounded people.
The movement of the City of Gaza will make the Palestinians’ ability to meet the basic survival needs of the people even more complex, because unbearable global food security experts say that “the worst famine scenario” already plays.
The UN’s Humanitarian Relief Agency said on Friday, the amount of aid entering Gaza “people to meet the tremendous needs of the minimum need to meet” continues to be.
Israel refused to be hunger in Gaza and accused UN agencies of not receiving and surrendering to the borders.
The UN’s Humanitarian Institution said it continued to see obstacles and delays while trying to get help from Israeli -controlled border regions.
The difficulties in distributing aid continue as the deaths of people trying to buy food.
Gaza Health Ministry said in a statement on Saturday, trying to get help in the last 24 hours, 21 people were killed, he said.
At the beginning of this month, the UN reported that 1,373 Palestinians have been killed to look for food in which a new US and Israeli -backed organization Gaza Humanitarian Foundation (GHF) has established aid distribution areas since the end of May.
The UN said it was mostly killed by the Israeli army, and that 859 were killed near GHF areas and 514 of them were killed along the ways of food convoys. GHF rejects the UN figure.
Israel accused Hamas of provoking chaos near the aid centers, and said that their forces did not intentionally open fire on civilians.
Israel does not allow BBC and other news organizations to report independently from Gaza, which makes it difficult to be verified.
The Israeli Prime Minister said that he would “provide humanitarian aid to the civilian population outside the war zones”, but did not give any more information about what might be.
Like previous forced displacement during the war, the deportation of the Palestinians will probably see the chaotic and dangerous scenes of families traveling with cars or overloaded vehicles.
After 7 October 2025, Israel’s army will be besieged into Gaza city and will increase its attacks. Hamas promised to strongly resist Israel’s attempt to conquer the city.
In addition, we can see scenes similar to what the army has done in Rafa, south of Gaza and north towns.
If there were Hamas fighters holding Israel hostages in the city of Gaza, this period would prove the most deadly.
If Hamas’s Israeli troops approach close to hiding, it is understood that the prisoners gave orders to kill hostages.
About 20 Israeli hostages in Gaza survive in Gaza, which is believed to be kept around the city of Gaza.
After the attacks on Israel led by Hamas on 7 October 2023, Israel began a military attack in Gaza, and about 1,200 people were killed and 251 people were hostage.
Since then, more than 61,300 people have been killed in Gaza as a result of Israeli military operations.
