A #Famine (IPC Phase 5) scenario continues to unfold in North Gaza Governorate | FEWS NET

Based on the collapse of the food system and worsening access to water, sanitation, and health services in these areas, coupled with a comparative analysis of trends in food consumption and acute malnutrition indicator data in late 2023/early 2024, it is highly likely that the food consumption and acute malnutrition thresholds for Famine (IPC Phase 5) have now been surpassed in North Gaza Governorate.
In the absence of a change to Israeli policy on the entry of food and nutrition supplies to this area, FEWS NET expects non-trauma mortality levels will pass the Famine (IPC Phase 5) threshold between January and March 2025, with at least 2-15 people dying per day.3
