The World Food Programme has warned that its food supplies in Gaza have run out, leaving hundreds of thousands at risk as charity kitchens face imminent shutdown.
The World Food Programme (WFP) says its food stocks in Gaza have been exhausted under Israel’s nearly eight-week blockade, cutting off a vital source of sustenance for hundreds of thousands of Palestinians.
Israel halted the entry of food, fuel, medicine, and other supplies into Gaza on March 2, later resuming bombardments and ground operations two weeks after, ending a two-month ceasefire with Hamas.
In a statement, the WFP said it had delivered the last of its supplies to charity kitchens it supports across Gaza. Those kitchens are expected to run out of food within days.
According to the UN, about 80% of Gaza’s population — over two million people — now depends primarily on charity kitchens, as other food sources have collapsed under the blockade.
The WFP had been supporting 37 kitchens producing around 500,000 meals daily. It remains unclear how many kitchens will continue operating once supplies run out.
