UN food agency to cut aid to 500,000 people in Gaza as funding dries up
Middle East2 sources2 countries🔦 Under-reported24m ago
The United Nations World Food Programme is reducing its food assistance in Gaza, cutting aid to 500,000 people due to severe funding shortages. The total number of individuals receiving assistance from the agency in the Palestinian territory will drop by approximately one-third, falling from 1.6 million down to 1.1 million.
For the families who retain their support, rations and cash assistance will be reduced. These cuts come despite ongoing high need, with two-thirds of the territory's population still requiring help to survive.
