Palestinians, including children, who are struggling to access food due to Israel’s blockade and ongoing attacks on the Gaza Strip, wait in line to receive food. The IPC report brings the facts behind those photographs of starvation into stark relief. This estimate has doubled since an IPC report in May, showing just how drastically the conditions have worsened in Gaza in recent weeks. On July 29, an IPC alert warned that the “worst-case scenario of famine” was playing out in the Gaza Strip. The Israeli military has started calling doctors and international organizations in the city, telling them to leave.
