Food insecurity in Gaza

According to the World Food Programme, 1.4 million Palestinians, out of a total population of 2.1 million, are in acute food insecurity and 200,000 of them are approaching the threshold of famine.

Impact of the conflict

The ongoing conflict in the region has severely disrupted food supply chains, limited access to agricultural areas, and hindered the delivery of humanitarian aid, exacerbating the crisis.

Humanitarian response

The World Food Programme and other international organizations are working to provide emergency food assistance, but the scale of the need far exceeds available resources and logistical capabilities.

Famine warning

Experts warn that without immediate and sustained international support, the situation could deteriorate rapidly, with the risk of famine increasing for the most vulnerable populations.
