The Integrated Food Security Phase Classification (IPC) warns that Gaza’s entire population faces high levels of acute food insecurity, with half a million people facing starvation. In its latest food security analysis for Gaza, the organization says there is a high risk of famine in the coming months. The IPC report says immediate action is essential to prevent further deaths, starvation, acute malnutrition, and famine. “This entails ending hostilities, ensuring unrestricted humanitarian access, restoring essential services and commercial flows, and providing sufficient lifesaving assistance to all in need.”
