In the first week of the ceasefire, the World Food Programme (WFP) has been able to reach more than 330,000 people with food assistance in Gaza.

With so many now on the move, WFP’s priority is to ensure assistance follows the people.

Programme Director of Emergencies, Samer Abdel Jaber, told UN News’s Nancy Sarkis that their work is “needed more than ever” across the whole Middle East, with crises continuing in Lebanon and Syria, where millions are still going hungry.
