What happened, for context

The UN Food and Agriculture Organization and UN Satellite Centre released a geospatial assessment on August 18, 2026, finding that only 3 percent (448 hectares) of Gaza's cropland remains both accessible and undamaged as of June 24, 2026. This represents a 25.5 percent decline from October 2025, when 601 hectares were accessible and undamaged. The assessment attributes the decline primarily to reduced access rather than additional physical damage, linked to the westward expansion of the "Yellow Line" separating the ceasefire zone from Israeli military-controlled areas.
