Prior calorie diet - In 2008 israeli authorities drafted a document calculating the minimum number of calories that palestinians could eat before they starved. (1.890-2.100) ''the idea is to put the palestinians on a diet. - Dov Weisblass, advisor to Pime Minister Ehud Olmert. (Epstein client)
After Oct. 7, Israel imposed a total blockade, which has made it hard to determine how many Gazans have stared to death due to the ensuing famine, the whole of Gaza, 2.2M people, were subjected to food insecurity at an emergency level, the highest number of people facing catastrophic hunger ever recorded on the IPC scale, making it the most intense man-made famine since the Second World War.
Airstrikes destroyed food infrastructure, such as bakeries, mills, and food stores.
Israel rejected over 100 aid requests since Gaza ceasefire, UN says. The United Nations said on Thursday that Israeli authorities have rejected more than 100 requests to bring relief materials into Gaza since the ceasefire began nearly a month ago.

Intent
In august of 2024, Israel's finance minister Bezalel Smotrich said at a conference: “We are bringing in aid because there is no choice... We can’t, in the current global reality, manage a war. Nobody will let us cause 2 million civilians to die of hunger even though it might be justified and moral...''

Destroying water supply
Between October 7, 2023, and mid-2025, Israeli military actions damaged or destroyed approximately 70% to 90% of Gaza's water and sanitation infrastructure, including resivoirs and desalination plants.
Decades-long Israeli blockade of the Gaza Strip prevented access to clean water and vital farming materials, through careful and assiduous tending.

Tagetting fishermen
Fatalities: At least 232 fishermen have been killed by Israeli forces since Oct. 7. 95% of Gaza's fishing vessels have been entirely ruined, burned, or sunk by Israeli fighter jets, naval gunboats, and bulldozers. This has left over 4,200 fishermen without a livelihood and exacerbated severe food insecurity across the enclave.
According to reports from the Palestinian Ministry of Agriculture and the UN (OHCHR), the Israeli military completely destroyed the primary Gaza City Seaport and three other coastal landing sites early in the conflict. Israeli helicopters and drones targeted the Rafah landing site, destroying more than 150 small fishing boats and severely damaging the Mawasi Association for Fishers facility. Out of approximately 300 active fishermen's stations, 270 were leveled or heavily damaged by airstrikes ground forces.
Beachfront Executions (June 2024) - UN-partnered documentation recorded an incident where two fishermen attempting to fish were fired upon by arriving Israeli tanks. Both were killed on the beach, leaving one with his fishing net still wrapped around his foot.
Gaza City Beach Drone Strike (August 2024) - An Israeli military drone fired a missile directly into a group of fishermen gathered on the Gaza City beach, killing at least seven fishermen and injuring several others attempting to secure food.
Since 2014, Palestinian farmers along Gaza’s perimeter have seen their crops sprayed by airborne herbicides and regularly bulldozed, and have themselves faced sniper fire by the Israeli occupation forces. Israel declared that any vegetation higher than 1 metre in the vicinity of their military ‘no-go’ area is a security threat, and must be flattened, formally admitting to this policy in 2015.
A satellite analysis of agricultural damage by He Yin of Kent State University found that since Oct. 7, Israeli operations destroyed roughly 50% of tree crops and 42% of greenhouses within Gaza since October 7th.
Since October 2023, Israel’s ground invasion has uprooted most of these orchards and systematically targeted agricultural farmlands and infrastructure throughout the besieged Strip. Prior to 2023, Gaza contained 170 square kilometres of agricultural land, accounting for about 47 percent of its total area. This comparison reveals that as of March 2024, of the agricultural areas targeted, approximately 40 percent of the land in Gaza previously used for food production has been destroyed. Satellite imagery from January 2024 shows that the farm was destroyed by the Israeli ground invasion. Earth berms have been raised by bulldozers to create military bases, and a new road has been carved through the landscape.
