DEIR AL-BALAH, Gaza Strip — Malnutrition rates among children in the Gaza Strip have doubled since Israel imposed sharp restrictions on the entry of food in March, the U.N. said Tuesday. New Israeli strikes killed more than 90 Palestinians, including dozens of women and children, according to health officials.

Israeli strikes overnight and into Tuesday killed more than 90 Palestinians across the Gaza Strip, including dozens of women and children, health officials said, as U.S. President Donald Trump's timeline to land a ceasefire between Hamas and Israel keeps drifting.

The war began when the armed group Hamas attacked Israel, resulting in the deaths of approximately 1,200 people and the abduction of 251 others to Gaza. As of now, out of the approximately 50 remaining hostages, it is estimated that only around 20 people are still alive.
