Gaza's Famines: A Cycle of Hunger and Neglect Gaza has been on the brink of famine for years, with 67 percent of its population struggling with food insecurity.
The latest warning from the United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs paints a dire picture, with over 200,000 people living in conditions that could lead to a formal famine declaration.
The statistics are stark, but they barely scratch the surface of the human cost. For families like Sahar al Bardini's, the effects of last year's famine still linger.
