Experts warned that Gaza was at risk of famine. Here’s why they confirmed it for Gaza City

The Gaza Strip’s largest city is gripped by famine, according to the world’s leading authority on food crises.

The Integrated Food Security Phase Classification, or IPC, said Friday that famine was occurring in Gaza City, and is likely to spread to the southern cities of Khan Younis and Deir al-Balah without a ceasefire and an end to restrictions on humanitarian aid.
