Community kitchens in Gaza are now producing only about one-third of the daily meals they provided in April, just four months ago, according to the UN, Anadolu Agency reports.

UN spokesperson Stephane Dujarric told reporters that partners on the ground reported that last week, more than 80 community kitchens were able to produce some 380,000 meals each.

“Back in April, the daily tally of community kitchens was more than a million meals each day,” he noted.

He said the World Food Program said its teams are doing everything possible to deliver food, but supplies “remain far below standards.”

Dujarric stressed that to prevent such deaths, humanitarians “must be able to deliver food at scale and consistently through all available crossings and routes.”

While welcoming an Israeli announcement lifting a five-month ban on shelter supplies, Dujarric expressed concern that it is linked to Israel’s plan to occupy Gaza.
