Israel's war on Gaza has killed over 64,000 Palestinians, with a stifling of aid entry into the enclave causing 411 Palestinians to starve to death.

Dozens of Palestinians have been killed in Israeli attacks on Gaza since dawn amid continued warnings from international aid agencies about an uptick in malnutrition rates among children across the enclave.

Over 36 Palestinians were killed in the attacks, according to Palestinian news agency Wafa, which added that 14 were killed in a strike on a house in Al-Tuwam north of Gaza City.

As Israel continues its campaign in Gaza City, which it plans to occupy, UNICEF has reiterated warnings that child malnutrition is increasing at a "devastating rate", with the agency saying that 13.5 percent of children across the enclave were malnourished in August, up from 8.3 percent in July.

Meanwhile, Qatar's prime minister is due to meet top US officials, and possibly US President Donald Trump, after members of the United Nations Security Council roundly condemned Israel’s attack on Hamas leaders in Doha.

Israel's war on Gaza has killed 64,718 Palestinians and wounded a further 163,859, with deaths from starvation accounting for 411 deaths, including 142 children.
