The World Food Programme (WFP) has urged increased food aid to Gaza as the hunger crisis plaguing the enclave has reached “new and astonishing levels of desperation”.
In a post on X, the WFP wrote that in Gaza, nearly one in three people is not eating for “days”.
“90,000 women & children need urgent malnutrition treatment. Food assistance is the only solution to stop starvation in its tracks. There’s no time to lose,” the organisation added.
This morning, more than 100 aid organisations warned that “mass starvation” was spreading across the Gaza Strip due to an Israeli siege on the number of aid trucks entering the enclave.
