In a tent by the Mediterranean Sea, Hidaya Al-Motawaq cradles her crying baby boy and tries to offer what comfort she can. "Khalas," she murmurs repeatedly. "Khalas, khalas." Enough, that's enough.
Mohammad is a year and a half old and nearly all bone. His eyes protrude, as does his swollen stomach. His spine is so sharp and so defined, it seems it might poke through his thin skin.
Al-Motawaq, 30, says she no longer has breast milk to give him, because she herself is malnourished.
A widow, Al-Motawaq went from hospital to hospital, looking for food or milk to offer Mohammad and her other child, his five-year-old sister, but says she has been unable to find any. The one remaining pediatric ward treating malnutrition in Gaza closed down this month, citing a lack of food and medical supplies.
