The World Food Programme (WFP) has confirmed that one in every three people in the Gaza Strip goes without food for several days.

Carl Skau, Deputy Executive Director of Operations at the United Nations WFP, stated on the platform X: "I just returned from my fourth visit to Gaza since the conflict began. The situation is worse than before." He added, "Hunger is spreading, and people are dying just for searching for food."

Skau explained that WFP teams in Gaza "are doing everything they can to deliver aid, often finding themselves caught under fire while escorting food convoys."
