The major International Authority of the food crises said, “The worst situation of famine is currently playing in the Gaza Strip.” New Alert TuesdayPrincipling “broader death” without immediate action.
The alert, still less than a formal famine declaration, follows an outrage over the images of the children weak in Gaza and reports dozens of hunger -related deaths after a war of about 22 months.
International pressure The weekend led Israel, so that measures, including daily human stagnation in fighting in Gaza and parts of the aircraft, could be announced. The Palestinians on the United Nations and the ground say very little has changed, and the desperate crowd continues to overwhelm and unload the delivery trucks before reaching its destinations.

Integrated food security phase classification, or IPC, stated that Gaza has on the verge of famine for two years, but recent developments have “spoiled” the situation “dramatically”, including “rapidly rigid blockade” by Israel by Israel.
“Increasing evidence suggests that widespread starvation, malnutrition, and disease are increasing the deaths related to hunger. The latest data indicates that most of the Gaza strips in Gaza city and famine threshold for food consumption for acute malnutrition have reached the famine threshold,” the IPC said. “Immediate action should be taken to eliminate enmity and allowed for unrelated, massive, life -saving human response. This is the only way to prevent further death and horrific human suffering.”
A formal famine declaration, which is rare, requires the type of data that has been largely denied the lack of access to the Gaza and the lack of mobility within it. The IPC has declared a famine only a few times – in Somalia in 2011, South Sudan in 2017 and 2020 in parts of the Western Darfur region of Sudan and last year.
“Deadly turn point” reached
But independent experts say that they do not require a formal announcement to know what they are looking at in Gaza.
“Just as a family doctor can often diagnose a patient, which he is familiar on the basis of visual symptoms without sending samples to the laboratory and waiting for the results, so we can also explain the symptoms of Gaza. It is a famine,” Alex de Wal, “Mass Star System: The History and Future of Famine” and Writer, Writer, Writer, Writer, Writer, Writer, Writer, Writer, WrL. Said.
A region is classified as a famine when the following three situations are confirmed:
At least 20% of families are highly reduced to food, or are essentially hungry. At least 30% of children are suffering from intense malnutrition or ruin of children from six months to 5 years, meaning they are very thin for their height. And at least two people or four children are under 5 per 10,000, who are dying daily due to starvation or malnutrition and disease interaction.
The report is based on the information available through July 25 and says the crisis “has reached a dangerous and deadly turn point.” It states that data indicates that at the most levels of Gaza since the war started – and Gaza has reached the famine threshold for consumption of food at its lowest level for rapid malnutrition in the city. The report states that about 17 out of every 100 children under 5 years of age have been malnourished in Gaza city.
The growing evidence suggests that “broad starvation,” IPC says. Health and other services have collapsed. According to the World Food Program, one of the three people in Gaza is going without food for a time. Hospitals reported rapid increase in hunger related deaths in children under 5 years of age. Gaza’s population of more than 2 million has been squeezed into the rapidly small areas of the destroyed region.
In May, the latest analysis of the IPC warned that Gaza will fall into famine if Israel does not perform its blockade and stops its military campaign. Its new alert asks for immediate and large -scale action and warns: “Now the failure of working will lead to widespread death in most parts of the strip.”
Israel has banned assistance up to different degrees throughout the war. In March, it cut the entry of all goods, including fuel, food and therapy, to pressurize Hamas to free the hostages.
Israel reduced those restrictions in May, but pushed forward with a new US-supported support distribution system, which has been erased from chaos and violence. Traditional, United Nations -led aid providers say Delivery has been interrupted By Israeli military sanctions and robbery incidents, while criminals and hungry mobs are entering the convoy.
While Israel says how many assistance can enter the truck in Gaza, there is no limit on this, United Nations agencies and support groups say that there are also the latest human measures. Not enough to compete with deteriorating starvationIn a statement on Monday, doctors without Borders called new aircrafts to be ineffective and dangerous, saying that they provide less support than trucks.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has said that no one is hungry in Gaza and Israel has supplied adequate support throughout the war, “Otherwise, there will be no ghazan.” Israel’s army on Monday criticized what it says to “false claims of intentionally starvation in Gaza”.
Israel’s closest colleague now appears to disagree. “Those children look very hungry,” President Donald Trump said on Monday of images to Gaza in recent times.
