Description
A recent UN-backed report found that all 2.2 million people in Gaza do not have enough food to eat, with famine expected to arrive in the north any time between now and May 2024. The European Union’s foreign policy chief has accused Israel of using starvation of a weapon of war as it continues to throttle aid deliveries into the enclave. While Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu says his country’s policy is to let as much humanitarian aid into Gaza as is necessary, aid groups say the evidence on the ground points to the contrary. In this episode, CNN’s Jomana Karadsheh explains how the hunger crisis could impact Gaza long after this latest round of fighting ends.
