Gaza: Hunger and Malnutrition Persist a Year After Ceasefire

Every day, Gazan mother Niyaha al-Masri spends six exhausting hours or more queueing at a community kitchen in the hope of getting some food for her family. It has been a year since a ceasefire between Hamas and Israel was supposed to allow food to flood into the ruined territory, yet widespread hunger persists there. This FRANCE 24 English report documents the ongoing humanitarian crisis in Gaza, where despite the ceasefire, many families are still struggling to find enough to eat. The video follows Niyaha al-Masri as she navigates the daily challenges of feeding her children, highlighting the slow pace of reconstruction and the obstacles to delivering aid. Experts and aid workers explain the factors contributing to the persistent food insecurity, including damaged infrastructure, bureaucratic hurdles, and limited funding. The report also examines the long-term impact of malnutrition on Gaza's population, especially children, and calls for renewed international efforts to address the crisis.
