Conservative
To ask His Majesty's Government what assessment they have made of the World Food Programme's ability to scale up its humanitarian operation in Gaza.
Lord Ahmad of Wimbledon
Minister of State (Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office)
We continue to support the United Nations World Food Programme (WFP).
On 20 March, the Foreign Secretary announced that the UK has funded WFP to provide 2,000 tons of food aid, enough to feed 275,000 people in Gaza. This is our largest delivery of aid to Gaza during the current crisis.
We remain committed to getting humanitarian aid to the people in Gaza who desperately need it, including through UN agencies and British charities.
