Gaza City and its surrounding area is now experiencing famine, confirmed by a UN-backed body of food security experts. The Integrated Food Security Phase Classification (IPC), used by governments and international bodies to identify hunger levels worldwide, has raised its classification to Phase 5—the highest and most severe. The report states that over half a million people across the Gaza Strip are facing catastrophic conditions characterized by starvation, destitution, and death. Israel has dismissed the IPC report as based on Hamas lies, continuing to restrict aid into Gaza and denying starvation in the territory, a denial that contradicts statements from more than 100 humanitarian groups, witnesses on the ground, and multiple UN bodies.
