All of Gaza’s 2.3 million inhabitants lack sufficient food and face malnutrition a month into Israel’s devastating siege of the Palestinian enclave, a World Food Programme official said, Reuters reports.
“Before October 7, 33 per cent of the population were food insecure,” said Kyung-nan Park, director of emergencies for the United Nations World Food Programme. “We can safely say that 100pc are food insecure at this moment.”
She said WFP needed $112 million to be able to reach 1.1 million people in Gaza in the next 90 days. “They are facing the risk of malnutrition,” she said.
