Gaza, MINA – The UN World Food Programme (WFP) said on Friday that all bakeries in central Gaza have been forced to close due to severe shortages amid Israel’s ongoing genocidal war on Gaza.
“All bakeries in central Gaza have closed due to severe shortages,” WFP wrote o X as quoted by Anadolu Agency.
WFP said that bread, a lifeline for many families and the only food they have access to, is “now increasingly out of reach” for residents.
UN organizations warn that “starvation remains a serious risk” for people in Gaza, urging “safe and secure access for vital humanitarian aid into Gaza.”
