Israel’s Continued Blockade of Aid and Attacks Deepen Humanitarian Crisis in Gaza
The UN has suspended food distribution in Rafah, southern Gaza, as Israel continues to block aid and intensify attacks. A US$320 million US-built pier project has not distributed aid; 569 tonnes remain undistributed. The World Food Programme (WFP) ceased distribution in Rafah after exhausting stocks. Disruptions by extremist Jewish settlers reduced deliveries to 5 of 11 trucks. 1.1 million people face catastrophic hunger. Israel's incursion into Rafah since 6 May worsened the crisis. WFP is re-evaluating logistics and cooperating with USAID.
