00:00On Tuesday, the director of the World Food Program's Food Security and Nutrition Analysis
00:05stated that the situation in the Gaza Strip has worsened exponentially
00:09and declared that hunger is emerging in Gaza and requires action by all members of the United Nations.
00:17This analysis was done in May 2025, and what it said was that there was a risk of famine for the Gaza Strip.
00:24Since May, the situation for food security and nutrition has gotten a lot worse.
00:30What the data tells us is that two of the three indicators that we monitor have breached famine thresholds.
00:38The three indicators that we look at include, number one, household food deficits,
00:43number two, global acute malnutrition, and number three, mortality.
00:48Today, we've got over 33% of the population that goes an entire day without having access to any food.
00:56For malnutrition, the levels of global acute malnutrition have quadrupled in Gaza City between May and July.
01:04So for two of the three indicators, we're above famine thresholds, which indicates how serious the situation has gotten.
01:10Now a famine is emerging in Gaza, and that...
01:16There's a million people that have been reported in Gaza City in Gaza City.
01:27Otherwise...
01:29There's a million people who say on the street that have had mentioned in Gaza City.
01:33In Gaza City, there are many people that would be moving to the Gaza City of Gaza City.
