Philippe Lazzarini said the decision was "outrageous".
"Despite the tragedy unfolding under our watch, the Israeli authorities informed the UN that they will no longer approve any Unrwa food convoys to the north," Lazzarini said on social media platform X.
"This is outrageous and makes it intentional to obstruct lifesaving assistance during a man made famine," he added.
The decision comes days after a UN-backed report warned that famine was a crisis many have accused Israel of causing by using starvation as a weapon of war.
