0:00 / 0:45
The World Food Program (WFP) reports that its food supplies in Gaza have been exhausted due to Israel's ongoing blockade. Around 80% of Gaza's 2 million residents rely on charity kitchens, now facing imminent closure due to depleted stocks. The WFP previously supported 47 kitchens providing 644,000 meals daily. Israel's blockade, described by rights groups as a "starvation tactic," prevents essential supplies from entering Gaza. Malnutrition is sharply rising, affecting thousands of children. The WFP has 116,000 tons of food ready, pending Israel's border opening.
