“Mounting evidence shows that widespread starvation, malnutrition, and disease are driving a rise in hunger-related deaths,” the IPC said in their latest alert.
Palestinians are on the brink of famine that would result in “widespread death,” according to the Integrated Food Security Phase Classification initiative. REUTERS Palestinians encircle an aid
