Report warns Gaza hunger crisis
An international report has revealed that more than two-thirds of the population in the Gaza Strip, approximately 1.4 million people, are at severe risk of hunger by the end of the year, due to a decline in humanitarian aid, funding shortages, and restrictions on relief agency operations. Following a temporary improvement in malnutrition levels after the ceasefire between Israel and Hamas in October 2025, the situation has worsened again due to decreased food supplies and healthcare services, with residents heavily dependent on external aid. It is estimated that the number of people facing hunger will rise to over 1.4 million by year's end. Additionally, the collapse of water and sanitation services increases the risk of disease outbreaks and malnutrition, especially among children and pregnant women. Despite Israel's claims of providing adequate food flows, reports indicate that the continued decline in aid threatens a humanitarian catastrophe, emphasizing the need for sustainable funding to ensure stability in humanitarian conditions.
