The spokesperson for the World Food Program (WFP) stated Tuesday that the food system in the Gaza Strip is collapsing due to the closure of crossings and the lack of production.

She added that what has entered the sector in 45 days is only sufficient for less than 3 days.

Less than half of the trucks that entered Gaza carried food, and the needs in Gaza exceeded the capacity of relief organizations due to the closure of crossings.

Fuel shortages significantly impact the organization's communications and relief operations.

She emphasized the need to stop hostile operations to allow relief organizations to work, pointing out that there is not only a lack of sufficient food in Gaza but also inadequate living conditions.

She called for the establishment of safe zones in Gaza to facilitate the distribution of humanitarian and food aid.
