Palestinians in Gaza are being deliberately starved to death and risking their lives to collect what meager rations Israel allows into Gaza. 
 Dozens of Palestinians, the vast majority of them children, have died of starvation since the beginning of the genocide. But now, Israel’s campaign of mass starvation has reached a tipping point: Over 50 children died of malnutrition in the four and a half months since Israel imposed a total blockade on Gaza.   Desperate to feed their families, Palestinians are trekking for hours under the hot sun — and being gunned down or crushed under stampedes — in the hopes of collecting bags of flour and other basic necessities at Israeli and U.S.- run aid sites. Over 900 people have been killed by the Israeli military at these supposed aid centers. This situation is absolutely horrific and violates every fundamental principle of human rights laws, laws of war, and basic human dignity. It is also entirely man made and preventable. You must take Immediate action to ensure the urgent needed aid is allowed to enter the Gaza Strip and be humanly and effectively distributed by the UN and other trusted organizations. Stop using our tax dollars to fund ethnic cleansing and genocide of Palestinian people.
