Famine is taking place in Gaza - just a short drive away from hundreds of trucks of aid sitting idly outside its borders.
How did we get here?
The Integrated Food Security Phase Classification (IPC), backed by the United Nations, is the world's leading hunger monitor.
Its assessment that half a million people – a quarter of Palestinians in Gaza – are suffering from famine is shocking for many reasons.
Primary among them is the report's acknowledgement that this situation is "entirely man-made", with aid organisations today accusing Israel of the "systematic obstruction" of food entering the Gaza Strip.
