Fake news, most of the news coming from Gaza are propaganda and local news post this garbage.. The boy suffers from genetic disorders. Can't trust them.

Paper posts note, corrects article, saying 18-month-old Mohammad al-Mutawaq has disorders ‘affecting his brain and muscle development’; originally said that he ‘was born healthy’

The New York Times issued a correction on Tuesday, after it published a front-page image last week of an emaciated child to illustrate widespread hunger in Gaza without noting that the boy suffers from health problems that predate the ongoing war.

“Children in Gaza are malnourished and starving, as New York Times reporters and others have documented,” the newspaper said in a written statement. “We recently ran a story about Gaza’s most vulnerable civilians, including Mohammad Zakaria el-Mutawaq, who is about 18 months old and suffers from severe malnutrition.

So the "scandal" here is that Israel is starving sick babies as well as healthy babies?

From the article you linked:

The New York Times acknowledged on Tuesday, in its updated article, which also features a short video clip of Mohammed in his mother’s arms, that “Mohammed, according to his doctor, had pre-existing health problems affecting his brain and his muscle development.”

“But,” the newspaper noted, “his health deteriorated rapidly in recent months as it became increasingly difficult to find food and medical care, and the medical clinic that treated him said he suffers from severe malnutrition.”
You realize this is not better, right?

And from the "broader context" photo; his "healthy weight' mom and brother ARE IN A FUCKING TENT MADE OUT OF SCRAPS!

Again, you're "Isreal is good actually" posts is confirming that they are making sick babies suffer, and that "healthy, normal" Gazans are the ones that have a scrap tent to live in!?!?!

This is seriously evil.

Nobody is starving, its propaganda and pressure put on Israel to stop the attack on Hamas.
