# Doctors Without Borders charity says that a quarter of all young children and pregnant or breastfeeding women screened at its clinics in Gaza last week were malnourished. The medical aid group, known by its French acronym MSF, said that Israeli authorities’ deliberate use of starvation as a weapon in Gaza has reached unprecedented levels, with patients and healthcare workers themselves now fighting to survive. It said that its staff in the besieged and war-torn Palestinian territory were receiving growing numbers of malnourished patients.
