UN organizations warn of a famine disaster in Gaza. The World Food Program said on Tuesday that it had temporarily suspended the delivery of food aid to northern Gaza.
UNICEF warned that 90% of the children in the Strip were suffering from malnutrition, amid warnings of an approaching famine disaster. The United Nations warned last week that alarming food shortages, widespread malnutrition and rapid spread of diseases are factors that could lead to a significant increase in the number of people dying from hunger. The Palestinian statement called for an immediate halt to the genocidal war against civilians, children and women.
