Gaza: Zionist occupation prevents aids from reaching the north amid looming starvation
Gaza – The World Food Programme (WFP) in the Palestinian territories warned on Monday that food supplies necessary to feed hundreds of thousands of people in besieged northern Gaza will be depleted within a week and a half.
Antoine Renard, the director of the WFP in the Palestinian territories, stated that the program will be unable to provide hot meals to residents of northern Gaza within a week and a half, and will run out of bread within a week unless the pace of aid deliveries significantly increases.
In its latest report, the WFP warned that over 90% of Gaza’s population could soon face food insecurity.
In the meantime, the U.N. Palestinian refugee agency UNRWA said on Monday the Zionist authorities were preventing humanitarian missions from reaching areas in the north of the Palestinian enclave with critical supplies, including medicine and food.
“People attempting to flee are getting killed, their bodies left on the street,” UNRWA head Philippe Lazzarini said on X.
In parallel, residents and medics said Zionist forces had tightened their siege on Jabalia by positioning tanks in nearby Beit Hanoun and Beit Lahiya towns and ordering residents to leave.
