John, early this morning, famine was confirmed in Gaza City. All three famine thresholds—catastrophic hunger, acute malnutrition, and mass death—have now been officially surpassed.

This confirms the unthinkable: famine is no longer a looming threat—it is a deadly reality in Gaza—with catastrophic hunger tightening its grip on families and children.

John, the scale of suffering in Gaza is almost unimaginable. Families are starving, children are wasting away from severe acute malnutrition, and people are dying. In some areas, children share a single cucumber for the entire day—or stop seeking aid because they're too weak to walk. These are the signs of starvation's brutal progression: the body shuts down, immunity collapses, and organs fail.

Abdelraheem Hamad, an IRC staff member inside Gaza, reports: "People are collapsing in the streets from emaciation. We're not just witnessing hunger anymore—this is starvation unfolding in real time."

The IRC is prepared to deliver more therapeutic food, clean water, sanitation, hygiene, child protection and cash assistance to families in need. Please start a monthly gift now to help save lives in crisis zones everywhere»
