Largest city faces extreme hunger, likely to spread without ceasefire and aid; Israel rejects the report as "an outright lie", threatens to expand offensive

The United Nations officially declared a famine in Gaza on Friday, blaming "systematic obstruction" of aid by Israel during more than 22 months of war, with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu swiftly dismissing the findings.

Netanyahu, whose defense minister meanwhile threatened to expand the offensive, rejected the UN-backed report as "an outright lie".

Hamas urged the United Nations and UN Security Council to "stop the war and lift the siege", calling for unrestricted access for food, medicine, water and fuel.
