In war-stricken Gaza, hunger is a constant companion
Palestinians wait for food at a donation site in a Rafah camp in the southern Gaza Strip on Dec. 23, 2023. “Four out of 5 of the hungriest people anywhere in the world are in Gaza,” U.N. Secretary-General António Guterres told reporters last week. The world body’s hunger-monitoring system, known as the Integrated Food Security Phase Classification, said that by the first week in February, Gaza’s entire population could be at “crisis or worse” levels of hunger — a designation it called unprecedented. “This is the highest share of people facing high levels of acute food insecurity that the IPC initiative has ever classified for any given area or country,” the report said. One Palestinian doctor working for the agency, Alrifai said, had set up a schedule of “Ramadan-style” fasting for her household — even though it is not the Muslim holy month, when people refrain from eating during daylight hours — because she could procure only enough food for one meal a day.
