WFP: Half of the population of the Gaza Strip suffers from hunger

Roma, (ST) – The United Nations World Food Program (WFP) affirmed that 200 days after the Israeli aggression on the Gaza Strip, half of the Strip’s population is suffering from hunger.

The UN program explained in a brief statement on platform X that according to the Palestinian Wafa News Agency, it provides necessary food aid to more than a million people every month in the Strip, and also works to operate food systems that have stopped working.

On the 20th of this month, the World Food Program announced that only 392 trucks loaded with food had arrived since the beginning of April, which is almost the same rate as last March, indicating that this amount of aid is just a drop in the ocean of needs, and there is a need for a ceasefire in the Gaza sector.
