Half a million in Gaza to lose WFP food support amid funding shortage

Original: Half a million Palestinians in Gaza are to lose food support amid WFP funding shortage

The World Food Programme says it must cut food assistance to around 500,000 Palestinians in Gaza because of a funding shortage. The reduction comes as the territory continues to face severe hunger following more than two years of conflict, with aid agencies warning that existing supplies already fall far short of basic needs. Aid groups are urging donor countries to provide urgent funding to prevent the cuts from taking effect.

Why now: News of a major cut to food aid in a crisis where hunger is already widespread is drawing attention to the worsening humanitarian situation in Gaza.
