WFP warns Gaza faces famine risk as food supplies run out

The World Food Programme has sounded the alarm over Gaza’s deepening hunger crisis, warning that hundreds of thousands are on the brink of starvation.

In a post on X on Friday, the agency said: “Two million people in Gaza, most of them displaced and without income, rely entirely on food assistance.”

“With supplies nearly gone and border crossings still sealed, Gaza needs food now,” the WFP added.

Israel’s continued blockade has made the delivery of aid nearly impossible, worsening the already dire humanitarian catastrophe.
