FOREIGN Secretary David Lammy has described the declaration of famine in Gaza City as “utterly horrifying” as he accused the Israeli government of causing a “man-made catastrophe”.

The Integrated Food Security Phase Classification (IPC) said yesterday that famine is occurring in Gaza City and could spread further south.

It comes after weeks of warnings by aid groups that restrictions on aid were leading to starvation among Palestinians.

In a statement yesterday afternoon, Mr Lammy said: “The confirmation of famine in Gaza City and the surrounding neighbourhood is utterly horrifying and is wholly preventable.

“The Israeli government's refusal to allow sufficient aid into Gaza has caused this man-made catastrophe.
