🔴 3 countries from the #MiddleEast and #NorthAfrica region are among the 13 global hunger hotspots. Triggered by unrelenting conflicts, economic and climate shocks. Families in #Palestine, #Yemen, and #Syria are on the brink of severe hunger.

🚨The window to push back starvation in #Gaza is closing quickly, and the desperate need for food remains high. Only a massive scale-up in distributions can stabilize the situation, calm anxieties & rebuild trust that more food is coming. We did it before, & we can do it again.

Carl Skau, deputy executive director at WFP, says a ceasefire in Israel's war on Gaza would allow more aid to enter the territory and feed Palestinians there.

Back from my fourth visit to #Gaza since the conflict began. The situation is the worst I’ve seen. Needs are higher than ever, and our ability to respond has never been more constrained. Starvation is spreading - people are dying just trying to find food.

Our Gaza teams are making every effort to deliver. They're often caught in crossfire, escorting food convoys through combat zones. We’re running out of fuel, spare parts, basic comms equipment. Our national staff live in the crisis, facing the same dangers & hunger as all Gazans.

World Food Programme WFP in the Middle East & North Africa We have the food, capacity, and readiness to deliver. During the last ceasefire, we got 8,000 trucks into #Gaza in 42 days. We can do it again. But we need all routes and entry points to open, and we need safety. And a ceasefire, which must also be a step toward lasting peace.

Humanitarian logistics is the backbone of getting critical assistance to those in need. But it's more than trucks & planes. It is the process of planning, procuring, transporting, storing & delivering. In 2024, World Food Programme supported 100+ million people with lifesaving assistance.
