Gaza Faces Severe Hunger Crisis as Conflict Disrupts Aid

UN reports indicate a high risk of famine with over 495,000 people facing catastrophic food insecurity.

More than half of Gaza's households have had to sell or swap clothes for food.
One in five households go entire days without eating, according to the IPC report.
Recent hostilities have worsened conditions, reversing earlier improvements in food access.
The UN highlights that humanitarian aid is severely limited due to ongoing conflict and access restrictions.
International pressure on Israel to facilitate aid has had limited success, with a ceasefire deemed essential.
