The United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees (UNRWA) has warned of "the approach of famine" in the Gaza Strip, whose residents are suffering from food insecurity and a lack of humanitarian aid, in light of the Israeli war that has been ongoing for more than 14 months.

The UN agency said in a series of posts on its X account on Sunday evening that its teams are working to deliver aid to those in need, but stressed that it is "not enough at all."

She pointed out that the people of Gaza are facing "severe food insecurity."

She called for "international cooperation and a ceasefire to provide life-saving aid as famine approaches."

Famine has spread in most areas of the Gaza Strip due to the strict Israeli siege, especially in the northern governorate, following the persistence of genocide and starvation to force citizens to move south.

On October 5, the Israeli occupation army invaded the northern Gaza Strip again, while reports confirm that Israel wants to occupy the area and turn it into a buffer zone after displacing them from it under the pressure of bloody bombing and preventing the entry of food, water and medicine.
