‘While famine is confirmed in Gaza City, we have warehouses full of food waiting to be allowed in,’ UN agency for Palestinian refugees says

A U.N.-backed food security group has issued a dire warning: famine has officially now taken hold in northern Gaza and is expected to spread in the coming months.

A UN-backed report has confirmed that there is widespread famine in Gaza, the first time a famine has been declared in the Middle East. Israel immediately rejected the findings.
