Famine risk looming in north Gaza, health officials warn
Acute food insecurity is a concern across Gaza, but the issue is especially pressing in the northern part of the strip where the Israeli military's ongoing assault has intensified in recent weeks.
Dr. Abu Safiyeh -- who works at Kamal Adwan Hospital in Beit Lahiya -- said the besieged facility is running out of all food, collecting video footage of the deteriorating situation there.
Safiyeh's warning followed a statement last week from the United Nations' food assistance arm warning that "the ongoing humanitarian crisis in Gaza could soon escalate into a famine unless immediate action is taken."
