WFP Cuts Aid to 500000 in Gaza Amid Funding Shortages
The UN World Food Programme has reduced aid to about 500000 Palestinians in Gaza amid severe funding shortages. Monthly food support and rations have been significantly scaled back across the territory.
The United Nations World Food Programme cut monthly food support to 500,000 people in Palestine on Monday morning due to severe funding shortages. The cuts reduce total monthly food assistance recipients to 1.1 million from 1.6 million across the blockaded territory. The reductions threaten to accelerate famine conditions as winter approaches in the region.
