The Man-Made Atrocity Famine in Gaza

by Daniel Larison

“The famine in Gaza is entirely man-made. Like other atrocity famines, it is the result of deliberate policy choices. The Israeli government has been deliberately starving the people of Gaza for the better part of two years. As more than 100 aid groups said in a joint statement, ‘the Israeli government’s siege starves the people of Gaza.’ Since the start of the war in October 2023, the Israeli government has been inflicting collective punishment on the civilian population by using starvation as a weapon, devastating Gaza’s civilian infrastructure, and destroying the health care system.” (07/30/25)
