The World Food Programme hopes that an Israeli humanitarian pause in designated areas of the Gaza Strip will allow for a surge in urgently needed food aid to the region, it said on Sunday.
The United Nations agency has enough food in or on its way to the region to feed the entire Gaza population of 2.1 million for almost three months, it said in a post on X.
