00:03A UN-backed global hunger monitor says nearly a quarter of Gaza's population is currently suffering famine.
00:08They project that situation will only get worse.
00:11The Integrated Food Security Phase classification, the global standard on food insecurity,
00:16says more than half a million people in Gaza are currently suffering from famine.
00:20That figure is expected to rise to more than 640,000 by the end of next month.
00:25In the coming weeks, more than 1.5 million people are expected to be at risk of malnutrition,
00:31severe food shortages and death from food shortage.

00:49In parts of Gaza, that threshold has been passed.
