HIGHLIGHTS
• The situation in Gaza is devastating. No humanitarian or commercial supplies have entered for nearly two months.
• All WFP food stocks are depleted, which forced the closure of all WFP-supported bakeries, and cut off bread access for 800,000 people. Food parcels are fully exhausted, and the last remaining supplies have been delivered to hot meal kitchens, which are expected to run out within days.
• Escalating hostilities, population movement restrictions and the expansion of military zones have made humanitarian operations nearly impossible, putting civilians and aid workers at extreme risk.
• Over 116,000 mt of WFP food - enough to feed one million people for up to four months - is positioned outside Gaza and ready for delivery, but without humanitarian access, no relief supplies can move.
• WFP joins other UN agencies in calling for an urgent ceasefire and reaffirming the need for safe, secure humanitarian space
