Opinion: Netanyahu is choosing to starve Gaza

To end starvation — an stave off social collapse — in Gaza, Israel must allow humanitarian-aid professionals to do their jobs.

The enduring anguish of the kind of starvation that has taken hold in Gaza lives on in personal and collective memory for generations. Starvation also lives on in the body, especially for the young. For children who survive acute malnutrition, the resulting physical and cognitive damage can last a lifetime. (Matt Rota/The New York Times)
