UNRWA Commissioner-General: Gaza remains in a man-made hunger crisis

From Philippe Lazzarini, the UNRWA Commissioner-General as posted on his official X account (previously known as Twitter)

Gaza remains in a man-made hunger crisis

The latest report from the IPC info underscores how fragile the gains have been since the ceasefire began in October. While Gaza Governorate is no longer classified as being in famine, 1.6 million people still face high levels of acute food insecurity.

To end this catastrophe, supplies must be let in at scale and humanitarians allowed to do their job.

UNRWA has food parcels for 1.1 million people and flour for the entire population waiting to enter the Gaza Strip.
