Rehab Akhras, living in a camp in Khan Younis with her family of 13, faces severe food shortages after six weeks of an Israeli blockade on Gaza, where hunger now threatens lives more than bombs. As aid agencies prepare to cease emergency meal distributions due to dwindling supplies, prices for staple foods have skyrocketed, leading to acute malnutrition among vulnerable populations. Israel claims it restricts supplies to prevent Hamas from exploiting aid, while many Gazans, including Akhras, feel they are being slowly killed by starvation.
