A new IPC report shows famine in Gaza has been averted since the October ceasefire, but over 100,000 people still face catastrophic hunger, with conditions remaining fragile.
- On Friday, the Integrated Food Security Phase Classification reported the spread of famine in the Gaza Strip was averted, yet the entire strip still faces starvation.

- In its worst-case scenario the IPC warned renewed conflict or halted aid could trigger famine, with nearly 2,000 people facing catastrophic hunger through April.
- Israeli authorities and international coordinators offer conflicting delivery assessments as COGAT and the Israeli Foreign Ministry rejected IPC findings, while American officials say aid meets the 600 trucks daily stipulation.
