Israeli PM Benjamin Netanyahu ruled out starvation reports in war-torn Gaza, saying he was "committed to achieving the war goals".
Netanyahu said, "We will continue to fight till we achieve the release of our hostages".
"There is no starvation in Gaza, no policy of starvation in Gaza, and I assure you that we have a commitment to achieve our war goals. We will continue to fight till we achieve the release of our hostages and the destruction of Hamas' military and governing capabilities. They shall be there no more," Netanyahu said.
Earlier, several reports claimed starvation in Gaza, which has deepened the humanitarian crisis.
Hospitals are reportedly on the brink, crippled by severe shortages of food, medicine, and essential nutrients.
Over 100 aid and human rights organisations issued a warning this week about the growing threat of "mass starvation" in Gaza.
Doctors without borders (MSF) reported that 25 per cent of the young children and pregnant or breastfeeding women screened at its clinics last week were malnourished. This came just a day after the United Nations revealed that one in five children in Gaza City is experiencing malnutrition.
Former US president Barack Obama on Monday also urged immediate action to prevent what he called the "preventable" starvation unfolding in Gaza, referring to the situation caused by the war that erupted between Israel and Hamas on October 7, 2023.
"While a lasting resolution to the crisis in Gaza must involve a return of all hostages and a cessation of Israel’s military operations, these articles underscore the immediate need for action to be taken to prevent the travesty of innocent people dying of preventable starvation," Obama posted on X.
Meanwhile, US president Donald Trump has alleged that Hamas is unwilling for a ceasefire deal in Gaza as Israel suggested it might explore “alternative options” to rescue the hostages after the talks broke down.
An Israeli official said that air drop of aid wounds in Gaza. The aids group working in the city have warned of the surging numbers of malnourished children in the ongoing warzone, reported news agency AFP.
