Almost a third of people in Gaza not eating for days, UN agency warns

 
Almost one in three people in Gaza are going days without eating, the UN's food aid programme has warned. 
 
"Malnutrition is surging with 90,000 women and children in urgent need of treatment," the World Food Programme said in an statement.
 
The Hamas-run health ministry warned starvation in Gaza has intensified this week, with nine more people dying of malnutrition on Friday.
 
Israel which controls the entry of all supplies into Gaza says there is no restriction on aid getting into the territory and blames Hamas for any malnutrition.
