Over 90% of Gazans face food shortages
The article addresses the dire humanitarian situation in the Gaza Strip following the fragile ceasefire agreement. The Palestinian government accuses Israel of a systematic policy of starvation by fully or partially blocking the entry of food aid, which has led over 95% of the population to depend on assistance and unemployment rates to soar to approximately 80%. The report also states that Israel allowed only 35% of the agreed-upon trucks to enter, with around 69,387 trucks passing through compared to the 198,000 required over 330 days. It notes that the economic crisis has caused food prices to rise by over 200%. In the healthcare sector, hospitals suffer from a severe shortage of medical supplies and declining health services due to the bombing and destruction of facilities, posing a threat to the lives of patients and injured individuals. Additionally, hostilities have escalated, resulting in injuries and fatalities caused by ongoing Israeli airstrikes.
