The UN World Food Program says that it has exhausted all its food supplies in Gaza, where Israel blocked the delivery of humanitarian aid to seven weeks.

“Today, WFP delivered the last remaining food supplies in hot meal cooking,” he warned. “These kitchens are expected to be completely out of food in the coming days.”

Israel has cut off the help of March 2 and continued offensive two weeks later after the collapse of ceasing fire for two-monthly saying it puts pressure on Hamas to release the remaining hostages.

The UN says Israel is obliged to provide an international law to secure supplies for 2.1 million Palestinians in Gaza. Israel says that it is in line with international law and there is no lack of assistance.

At the end of March, all 25 bakers supported by WFP in Gaza were forced to close after wheat flour and cooking fuel. There are also exhausted food plots divided by families containing two weeks.

The creation is also rapidly deteriorated, according to the UN. Last week, one of his humanitarian partners examined 1,300 children in northern Gaza and identified more than 80 cases of acute malnutrition – twice the increase from previous weeks.

The UN’s UN Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA) says that there are also serious lack of medicine, medical materials and hospitals flooded with victims from Israeli bombing and that the lack of fuels interfere with the production and distribution of water.

World Health Organization (WHO) Manager. Tedros Adhan GheBreysus said in Gaza “awful and dark moment.”

“This help block must end. The lives depend on.”

WFP said that the current Israeli blockade – the longest closure of Gaza ever faced – worsened the already fragile market and food systems.

Food prices have accelerated up to 1,400% in relation to the ceasefire, and the lack of essential goods increased serious health concerns for a vulnerable population, including children under five, pregnant women and the elderly, and the older ones.

“The situation within the Gaza Strip has once again reached a break: People do not appear on the road, and fragile gains made during a short break for help and trade in the entry, for entering the WFP,” Agency said.

“WFP calls on all parties to prioritize the needs of civilians and allow assistance to immediately enter Gaza and support their obligations towards international humanitarian law.”

More than 116,000 tons of food assistance – enough to feed millions of people for up to four months – it is positioned in the corridors of help and is ready to deliver as soon as Israel opens the border crossings of the Gaza, the agency said.

Meanwhile, the director of the WFP country Antoine Renard told the BBC, the Agency tried to keep all that could hold warm cuisines running.

“More than 80% of the population … was displaced during the war. And from the 18th. March (when Israeli is re-offensive), you have more than 400,000 people who were re-displaced,” he said again, “he said.

“Every time you move, every time you lose your property. So these cuisine are so important people have a basic meal.”

However, even when fully delivered, the kitchens have reached only half of the population with only 25% of daily food needs.

Gavin Kelleher, Humanitarian Refuge Manager with the Norwegian Refuge Council, that they used to not run out of food for food that they would no longer be able to no longer able to do nothing in a state of being able to give nothing to give anything.

To survive, he said that people were less eaten, the BARTERY to “exchange a bag of diapers for lenses or cooking oil” or sales what they left to access the remaining food supplies.

He added that begging is also held on a scale that is not seen before in Gaza, but that people could no longer give others.

“Despair is really, really strong.”

Earlier this week, the Israeli Ministry of Foreign Affairs rejected the criticism of the blockade from the UK, France and Germany, which called it “unbearable” and demanded that it was immediately completed in a joint statement.

The Ministry led more than 25,000 trucks that carry 450,000 tons of assistance entered Gaza during the truce, adding: “Israel monitors the situation on the ground and there is no lack of assistance in Gaza.”

It was also said that Israel was not obliged to allow help because Hamas “retired” supplies “to restore his terrorist machine.”

Hamas previously denied theft of help, and the UN said he kept “a very good custody chain on all the aid supplied”.

Last week, Hamas rejected the Israeli proposal for a new truce, which included a request for the return for a six-week pause in hostilities and editions of 10 out of 59 hostages still in captivity. The group reiterated that it will submit all the hostages in exchange for the end of the war and the full Israeli withdrawal.

The Israeli army launched a campaign for destruction of Hamas in response to the unpredicted cross-border attack 7. October 2023. In October 20, about 1,200 people were killed, and about 1,200 people were killed, and 251 others were killed as a hostage.

Since then, at least 51,439 people were killed in Gaza, according to the Hamas-Run’s territorial Ministry.
