Northern Gaza Famine Alert Issued Amid Israel's Continued Siege

ai generated text

Several sources, including the IPC Famine Review Committee and the World Health Organisation, have warned of imminent famine in northern Gaza. The committee and the WHO's director-general attribute the potential famine to a severe shortage of humanitarian aid, including food and medicine, due to Israel's military offensive in the area. The warning comes days before a US deadline for Israel to improve the humanitarian situation in Gaza.

  1. United Nations Famine Review Committee
    1. If no effective action is taken by stakeholders with influence, the scale of this looming catastrophe is likely to dwarf anything we have seen so far in the Gaza Strip since 7 October 2023.
    2. Famine thresholds may have already been crossed or else will be in the near future.
    3. Immediate action, within days not weeks, is required from all actors who are directly taking part in the conflict, or have influence on its conduct, to avert and alleviate this catastrophic situation.
  2. ES
    Jean-Martin Bauer
    UN World Food Program
    1. The daily average number of trucks entering Gaza in late October was about 58 per day.
    2. We were getting about 200 a day in September and August, so that's really a big, big decline.
  3. US
    Cindy McCain
    UN World Food Program
    1. The unacceptable is confirmed: Famine is likely happening or imminent in north Gaza.
    2. Immediate steps MUST BE TAKEN to allow safe, rapid & unimpeded flow of humanitarian & commercial supplies to prevent an all-out catastrophe. NOW.
