Overview
- The UN Palestinian refugee agency (UNRWA) confirms that Gaza's flour reserves are fully depleted, with only 250 food parcels remaining for distribution.
- Nearly 3,000 aid trucks, loaded with essential supplies, have been blocked from entering Gaza by the Israeli military since early March.
- Food prices in the Gaza Strip have surged by up to 700% compared to pre-war levels, according to the UN World Food Programme.
- Over 1.9 million residents, approximately 90% of Gaza's population, have been displaced during the ongoing conflict, many forced to relocate multiple times.
- The humanitarian crisis follows the collapse of a two-month ceasefire in mid-March, leading to the resumption of heavy Israeli military operations in the region.
