RAMALLAH, West Bank (AP) — The world’s leading authority on food insecurity said on Thursday that the situation in Gaza had improved since famine was declared in parts of the Palestinian territory last year, but warned that conditions remained at crisis levels and could slip back into catastrophe.The Integrated Food Security Phase Classification, or IPC, said a reduction in fighting as well as Israel allowing more aid into Gaza had driven improvements. But the IPC noted that food consumption remained inadequate for most of the 2.1 million people living in the war-battered enclave.The designation underscored how conditions in Gaza have both markedly improved since last year and remain at crisis levels without immediate prospects for recovery.
