WFP cuts food aid to half a million people in Gaza as funding runs short before winter
The UN World Food Programme says a funding shortfall has forced it to cut monthly food assistance in Gaza from 1.6 million to 1.1 million people, leaving about 500,000 without critical aid as winter approaches. Rations have been halved, hot meals reduced, and the agency says it needs $450 million to keep operations in Gaza and the West Bank running until March 2027.
