A new joint report <https://www.wfp.org/stories/gaza-updates-wfp-calls-access-un-hunger-hotspots-report-highlights-global-crises> from the Food and Agriculture Organization and the World Food Program warns that even as North Gaza is now facing famine, “it is highly likely that the rest of the Gaza Strip would be facing a risk of famine through July 2024, in a worst-case scenario.”
The International Medical Corps <https://reliefweb.int/report/occupied-palestinian-territory/international-medical-corps-implements-campaign-address-malnutrition-gaza>, an NGO working in Gaza alongside UNICEF and other organizations, reports this week that “According to a recent needs assessment by the Global Nutrition Cluster, the situation in Gaza is alarming: the ongoing conflict has significantly worsened child malnutrition from a Global Acute Malnutrition rate of 0.8% to 16% in northern Gaza and 7% in the rest of Gaza.” That “7% in the rest of Gaza” figure will skyrocket by July to levels similar to what now exists in North Gaza. https://www.juancole.com/2024/06/israel-encompass-killing.html -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Groups.io Links: You receive all messages sent to this group.
