The World Food Program said that the continued imposition of restrictions on the entry of food and relief supplies into Gaza will lead to a real disaster in terms of food security. Warning that the available stock in the sector is not sufficient for a long period.

The program's regional spokesperson, Abeer Atifa, stressed in a press statement today, Monday, the need to ensure regular entry of food trucks and basic supplies, and the fuel needed to operate hospitals, bakeries and water desalination plants.

She pointed out that more than 80% of the population of the Gaza Strip depend on international relief aid, while 1.2 million people face a state of acute food insecurity, meaning that they are unable to secure their basic food needs.

She explained that food supplies in Gaza are dangerously decreasing, and that the available stock will not be sufficient for a long time in light of the continued "Israeli" ban on the entry of aid trucks and goods, warning of the catastrophic repercussions of the decision on the humanitarian situation that is on the verge of collapse.

Atifa stressed that the World Food Program is working at its maximum capacity to provide support to those affected by the war, but the continued closure of the crossings is hindering relief operations and increasing the suffering of the population, especially children, the elderly and the sick, who depend entirely on humanitarian aid. She called on the international community to intervene urgently to prevent the crisis from worsening, stressing that food security is a basic right, and that the concerned parties must ensure that aid reaches without obstacles to prevent an unprecedented humanitarian disaster in Gaza.
