Israel's cutoff of supplies to Gaza has sent prices soaring and humanitarian groups scrambling to distribute dwindling stocks. The aid freeze has put progress in staving off famine at risk, as Gaza's population is entirely dependent on trucked-in food and other aid. The World Food Program says it has no major stockpile of food in Gaza and may be forced to reduce ration sizes. There is also a shortage of tents and shelter materials, leading to deaths from exposure. Prices of vegetables and flour are climbing, and Palestinians fear a repeat of the intense bombardment of Gaza in 2023.
