ShafaqNews/ Community kitchens feeding Gaza’s displaced are just days from closureamid a deepening aid blockade, the World Food Programme (WFP) warned on Monday.
Accordingto the UN agency, since Israeli forces cut off supplies in March, food pricesin Gaza have soared by 1,400%. The number of operational kitchens has fallenfrom 170 to about 70, leaving tens of thousands at risk.
Aidgroups have also reported 10,000 cases of acute malnutrition and warned thatmore than 60,000 children are now in danger.
Theworsening humanitarian crisis has intensified international pressure, with theInternational Court of Justice (ICJ) on Monday opening hearings into Israel’slegal obligations to facilitate humanitarian access. However, Israel rejectedthe proceedings, and Foreign Minister Gideon Sa’ar described the case as"politicized."
In turn,Palestinian Envoy Ammar Hijazi accused Israel of using starvation as a"weapon of war."
Amid theescalating emergency, ceasefire talks mediated by Egypt and Qatar in Cairo arereportedly nearing a "significant breakthrough." Hamas has offered a long-term truce inexchange for a permanent end to hostilities, but Israel is demanding theunconditional release of hostages and the disarmament of Hamas.
Meanwhile,Gaza’s Health Ministry said more than 52,000 Palestinians have been killedsince the conflict began in October 2023, with thousands more believed to beburied under the rubble.
