The World Food Programme has stressed the immediate need to enhance humanitarian aid in Gaza following a tragic incident where two individuals died during a desperate search for food in a UN warehouse. Following an 11-week blockade, minimal humanitarian supplies are trickling into Gaza, insufficient to meet the overwhelming hunger crisis facing its population. UN officials described the situation as dire, comparing current aid levels to a lifeboat after a shipwreck. Controversy surrounds new aid mechanisms proposed by Israel, raising concerns about the neutrality of aid under proposed surveillance-based rationing plans.
The World Food Programme has reiterated its call for the urgent need to scale up aid to Gaza, highlighting the escalation of the humanitarian crisis there.
After ending an 11-week blockade last week, Israel has allowed limited humanitarian supplies to be delivered, but those amounts are insufficient for the needs.
