Gaza Strip Update #309
• The Gaza Strip is on the brink of famine, UN agencies warn, based on the latest Integrated Food Security Phase Classification alert findings.
• In the first two weeks of July, 96% of surveyed households experienced moderate to high levels of water insecurity, a 3% increase compared with June.
• As airdrops resume, the Protection Cluster warns that this modality could kill or injure civilians and is insufficient in scale to meet the extensive needs inside Gaza, among other concerns.
• Medical evacuations are declining; nearly two-thirds of patients evacuated from Gaza for urgent treatment abroad exited prior to the closure of Rafah crossing in May 2024.
On 29 July, the Integrated Food Security Phase Classification (IPC) Global Initiative issued an alert, noting that the worst-case scenario of famine is currently playing out in the Gaza Strip, amid widespread starvation, malnutrition and disease, mass displacement, severely restricted humanitarian access, and the collapse of essential services, including health care. The latest data indicate that famine thresholds have been reached for food consumption in most of the Gaza Strip and for acute malnutrition in Gaza City (see alert for threshold definitions). Data remotely collected in July 2025 using Computer Assisted Telephone Interviews (CATI) confirm that food consumption across the Gaza Strip has worsened dramatically, reaching its lowest level since October 2023; in July, 81 per cent of households reported poor food consumption (up from 33 percent in April) and 24 percent of households are experiencing very severe hunger (up from four per cent in April), crossing the famine threshold for food consumption. Moreover, acute malnutrition rates doubled in Khan Yunis and increased by 70 per cent in Deir al Balah between May and July and, in Gaza City, the Global Acute Malnutrition (GAM) rate soared from 4.4 per cent in May to an alarming 16.5 per cent in the first half of July, thereby reaching the Famine threshold for acute malnutrition. The situation in North Gaza governorate, which faces similar challenges, cannot be verified due to the lack of data. The alert highlighted that nearly nine out of ten households have resorted to extremely severe coping mechanisms to feed themselves, such as taking significant safety risks to obtain food, and scavenging from garbage.
