UN: Only 3% of Gaza's farmland remains
The United Nations issued a warning regarding the worsening agricultural situation in the Gaza Strip, where currently only 3% of the arable land is safe and accessible to farmers due to the expansion of military zones. According to a recent study, the area of cultivable land decreased from 601 hectares in October 2025 to 448 hectares in June 2026, a decline of 25.5% over eight months. Most of these lands have suffered severe damage requiring extensive repairs. Additionally, more than 97% of the agricultural lands outside the reach of farmers in Rafah, and only 16.6% of protected greenhouses remain usable, significantly threatening Gaza's local food production.
