A year after the United States brokered a ceasefire to end Israel's war on Gaza, the humanitarian situation in the enclave remains dire. Over two million residents had hoped for an improvement, but Israel's continued attacks have further strained the already scarce food supply. The World Food Programme has announced funding shortages, compelling it to reduce its operations in Gaza. This decision will leave half a million Palestinians without essential food aid. The article explores potential solutions to bridge this critical gap.
