8-Year-Old's Hunger Cry: Gaza's Famine Exposed

Gaza Famine: Eight-Year-Old Girl's Plea Highlights Humanitarian Crisis Gaza City, Palestine – A video of eight-year-old Mirna Zaqout, her face etched with hunger and tears, has gone viral. The video, posted by Sahat, a news outlet, depicts the desperate situation faced by Mirna and her family. Her father was killed during the recent conflict in Gaza, leaving the family struggling to survive under a suffocating blockade. "We haven't eaten in five days," Mirna says in the video, her voice trembling. "We have no flour, no food, nothing at all." Her mother, Ilham Zaqout, describes their ordeal: "After my husband was martyred, my suffering began. I could no longer provide food for my daughters. This forced my daughter to eat from the garbage." The family's story is a stark reminder of the worsening humanitarian crisis in Gaza. The blockade has severely restricted the flow of essential goods, causing food shortages and soaring prices. International organizations are calling for urgent action to alleviate the suffering of Palestinian civilians. The video serves as a powerful testament to the resilience of the Palestinian people and a call for global support.
