The United Nations World Food Programme (WFP) has warned of a worsening humanitarian crisis in the Gaza Strip, confirming that approximately two million people, the majority of whom are displaced, currently live without any source of income and are entirely dependent on humanitarian aid to meet their basic food needs.
In a series of statements issued over the past few hours, the program warned of what it described as a "growing danger" threatening hundreds of thousands of Gaza residents, given the severe dwindling food supplies, which portends an imminent humanitarian disaster.
The program noted that this dangerous situation coincides with the continued closure of border crossings, completely obstructing the arrival of essential food supplies into the besieged Strip. It emphasized that Gaza is in dire need of an immediate, sustained, and uninterrupted flow of food to avoid a complete collapse in food security.
He also warned of dire consequences if the situation continues as it is, noting that Palestinian civilians in Gaza are already facing catastrophic humanitarian conditions and a severe shortage of all necessities of life.
