Israel largely shut off entry of food, water, medicine and other supplies after launching its assault on Gaza following Hamas’ Oct. 7 attack on southern Israel — allowing only a trickle of aid trucks through two crossings in the south.

After months of warnings over the risk of famine in Gaza under Israel’s bombardment, offensives and siege, children are starting to die.

The ultimate, intended outcome of Israel’s humanitarian blockade of Gaza is beginning.

    The famine is now much worse it seems, so it’s not wrong to refer to it as recent development in the headline of a news article.

    Speaking of which, the headline currently reads:

    It’s not just Israeli bombs that have killed children in Gaza. Now some are dying of hunger too

    Which is different from the post’s title. Did the headline change, or did you editorialize?
