In a shocking humanitarian crisis, Palestinian students trapped inside Gaza City universities are being left to starve as Israeli forces block essential aid. Reports reveal that dozens of students, already weakened by months of conflict, are now facing death due to severe malnutrition and dehydration.
Desperate Conditions Inside Gaza Universities
Students at Al-Azhar and Islamic universities have described dire conditions, with no access to food, clean water, or medical supplies. Many are surviving on scraps, while others have resorted to drinking contaminated water just to stay alive.
"We are being left to die," said one student, who wished to remain anonymous for safety reasons. "No one is coming to help us. The world has forgotten we exist."
Israeli Blockade Halts Aid Deliveries
Despite international calls for a ceasefire, Israeli forces continue to restrict humanitarian aid into Gaza. The blockade has left thousands without basic necessities, with students among the most vulnerable.
UN officials have warned of an impending famine if aid does not reach Gaza soon. However, Israeli authorities maintain that security concerns justify the restrictions.
Global Outcry Over Student Suffering
Human rights organisations and student unions worldwide have condemned the inaction, demanding immediate intervention to save lives. Protests have erupted in several cities, with demonstrators calling for an end to the blockade.
Meanwhile, families of the trapped students plead for help, fearing their loved ones may not survive much longer.
