The United Nations World Food Program (PAM) alerted this risk of famine on Wednesday, November 29, 2023 against the risk of famine that hangs over the Gaza Strip.
According to this UN institution, supplies remain insufficient to deal with the hunger level observed by program staff in UN shelters and other places reserved for displaced.
“It is very likely that the population of Gaza, especially women and children, are at high risk of famine if WFP is unable to provide continuous access to food, ” said the first humanitarian organization in the world, by press release.
The UN agency based in Rome specifies that it has delivered vital food to more than 120,000 people in Gaza since last Friday, the day of the entry into force of the humanitarian Truce ”.
