In more news from the Occupied Territories, a U.N. official has said that around 27,000 Palestinians in the West Bank are no longer receiving any World Food Programme assistance since the start of 2019 due to funding cuts. Another 165,000 in both Gaza and the West Bank are receiving a reduced amount of food assistance from the U.N.-run program. The cuts are due to a drop in donations in recent years, most notably from the United States.
