Summary
In Nuseirat camp, Gaza, Palestinians are facing severe hunger due to ongoing Israeli attacks and a blockade, leading many to queue for charity meals. UNRWA’s commissioner-general, Philippe Lazzarini, describes the situation as a ‘fabricated, man-made and politically motivated famine,’ with 470,000 Gazans in critical need of food. Despite humanitarian aid being ready for entry, border closures have caused food prices to skyrocket, exacerbating the crisis, as children and mothers suffer from acute malnutrition amid a prolonged siege.
