The UN’s humanitarian office warns Gaza is becoming the “hungriest place on earth” as Israel severely limits aid. Only flour is entering, with almost no ready-to-eat food, risking famine for 100% of the population. Of 900 trucks, just 600 reached the border, where bureaucratic and security hurdles halt further delivery. Meanwhile, the Red Cross reports half its medical facilities in Gaza are down due to fuel and equipment shortages. Humanitarian agencies plead for safe aid access to prevent catastrophe in the war-torn region, where starvation is growing by the hour.
