The Gaza Humanitarian Foundation (GHF) is distributing food boxes containing primarily dried goods like pasta, lentils, and chickpeas to over two million Palestinians facing starvation. While providing sufficient calories for short-term survival, experts express concerns about nutritional deficiencies, citing a lack of essential vitamins and minerals. The boxes lack crucial elements for children and pregnant women, raising concerns about long-term health consequences. The GHF hasn't responded to questions regarding nutritional advice or plans to address the identified issues.
