The Integrated Food Security Phase Classification (IPC), supported by the UN, has warned that Gaza is facing its worst famine crisis. Recent reports show widespread hunger, severe malnutrition, and rising death rates due to starvation-related illnesses. Nearly 2.1 million Palestinians are at severe risk, with Gaza City experiencing critical malnutrition. The ongoing Israeli blockade, imposed since March 2025, has restricted aid, worsening the food crisis. Since October 2023, 147 deaths from malnutrition, including 88 children, have been reported amid escalating conflict.
