      Solution

      The United Nations declared a famine in Gaza on August 22, 2025, noting it as the first such famine in West Asia. The UN aid chief highlighted the famine as preventable, attributing it to obstructions in food supply. The declaration was grounded in evidence that extreme food shortages, high malnutrition, and elevated mortality were occurring—criteria aligned with the IPC (Integrated Food Security Phase Classification). The date identifies when the UN formally announced the severity of the humanitarian crisis.
