Hundreds of thousands in Gaza at risk of malnutrition again, says WFP

Hundreds of thousands of people in Gaza are at risk of severe hunger and malnutrition once again, as Israel's blockade on aid and resumption of war severely disrupted food assistance operations, the UN World Food Programme (WFP) has said.

"WFP and partners from the food security sector have been unable to bring new food supplies into Gaza for more than three weeks," WFP said on Thursday, adding that its remaining food stocks would support operations for a maximum of two weeks.
