New figures from the Hamas-run ministry include 12 children who have died, as the UN says Israel must allow aid into Gaza.
Some 33 people, including 12 children, have died from malnutrition in the past 48 hours, according to Gaza's Hamas-run health ministry

It comes as the UN chief says Gaza's "last lifelines" are collapsing, with humanitarian conditions breaking down at an "accelerating" pace during Israel's offensive

UK Foreign Secretary David Lammy tells the BBC he's "sickened" by the "grotesque" scenes in Gaza

On Monday, he joined 27 other nations in condemning the "horrifying" killing of hundreds of Gazans trying to get food from Israel's aid operations

Meanwhile, the World Health Organization says Israel's new ground offensive in central Gaza has compromised its efforts to continue working, after its facilities were attacked; Israel said its troops came under fire in Deir al-Balah and it had been "in contact with the international organisations working in the area"

Israel does not allow the BBC and other international media into Gaza to report freely.
