The United Nations (UN) rights experts on Tuesday accused Israel of carrying out a "targeted starvation campaign" that has resulted in the deaths of children in Gaza.

"We declare that Israel's intentional and targeted starvation campaign against the Palestinian people is a form of genocidal violence and has resulted in famine across all of Gaza," 10 independent UN experts said in a statement, listing three children who had recently died "from malnutrition and lack of access to adequate healthcare."
