Many in Gaza experiencing ‘severe’ food insecurity: Red Crescent

The secretary-general of the International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies has stated that the food crisis in Gaza has hit a “critical point.”

“Many people are already facing severe food insecurity, and the situation worsens each day. Children are especially affected, with many suffering from malnutrition,” Jagan Chapagain posted on X.

“In Rafah, recent hostilities have exacerbated the already dire humanitarian crisis, disrupting food distribution due to supply shortages and severely impacting people’s health."
