The World Food Programme has warned that the opportunity to push back starvation in Gaza is closing fast as Israel continues to restrict the entry of aid into the besieged enclave, according to Al Jazeera.
Samer Abdel Jaber, the WFP’s regional director, said the agency needs three things to address the hunger crisis in Gaza.
These are “multiple points of access and safe routes to reach families that are constantly being displaced; support from the international community to allow and enable humanitarian actors to do their job; and more than anything, we need a sustained ceasefire”, he said.
