Famine confirmed in northern Gaza, says U.N.-backed agency [View all]
The world's leading authority on food insecurity has confirmed a famine in Gaza.
In a report published Friday, the United Nations-backed group of experts finds that over half a million people parts of north Gaza are at risk of dying from starvation, and hundreds of thousands more people face catastrophic shortages as the famine spreads to other areas.

Israel was quick to respond to the report. Israel's Foreign Ministry accused the IPC of publishing "a tailor-made report to fit Hamas's fake campaign." It claims "there is no famine in Gaza." The Coordination of Government Activities in the Territories (COGAT), the Israeli military body in charge of Palestinian civilian affairs, said the report is based "partial and unreliable sources, many of them affiliated with Hamas." COGAT said the report's authors overlooked data they were provided and recent humanitarian efforts in Gaza.

Apparently Israel doesn't want you to believe your lying eyes.
