The following claim, “No, Gaza isn’t Starving,” is an exceedingly false claim; Gaza is undernourished, and it is fearsome for citizens' health conditions. United Nations News explains, “Palestinians in Gaza are experiencing 'extremely critical' levels of hunger, with 70 per cent of crop fields destroyed and livelihoods.” The Gaza strip is heavily reliant on growing their own crops as sources of nutrition. Throughout the news article United Nations News explains that Gaza is already beginning to face phase 5 food insecurity. Concerns are continuously rising across many forms of media, UNICEF (United Nations Children's Fund) reports, “Severe malnutrition is spreading among children faster than aid can reach them.” This is extremely concerning, given that the children are a priority when it comes to receiving food. It was also explained that “No child will emerge from the horrors of the war without the imprint of trauma,” a vast amount of undernourishment is taking place to the severity that children are not going to be able to escape without trauma. The worldwide Aljazeera public media company, which is popular in Quatar reports on the subject. They emphasize the severity of the ongoing famine. Stating, 271 people have died due to starvation, including 112 children.

In the video claim, speaker said one of the pictures are used multiple time to explain the hunger situation. Certainly, there are some times to use one person's pictures, still it is not reason why the information that Gaza's people are suffering from hunger was totally false. According to the article, "At least 16 children under five have died from hunger-related causes since mid-July." And then, A lot of children (20,000 people) were treated at the hospital to the acute malnutrition. Even if these huger information was made with the purpose that having some impact of hunger by spreading this information, perhaps it didn't directly trigger to resist against for Israel, I guess. Therefore, I think this claim video was false.
