UN confirms Gaza famine as emergency aid dwindles and conflict persists
TL;DR Summary
A UN-backed report has confirmed famine in Gaza City for the first time, with over half a million people facing catastrophic conditions due to man-made factors, primarily the blockade by Israel, which has restricted aid and worsened the humanitarian crisis amid ongoing conflict. The situation is described as the most severe deterioration since monitoring began, with urgent international response needed to prevent further deaths.
