UNRWA warns of dire conditions challenging displaced Palestinians

The UN agency for Palestinian refugees has warned the dire conditions that the war-stricken families in Gaza face caused by repeated displacement.
UNRWA warns of dire conditions challenging displaced Palestinians
The United Nations Relief and Works Agency (UNRWA) reiterated the ‘urgent need for immediate ceasefire’ in the besieged strip.

The UN agency added in a post on X, "In Deir al-Balah in the center of the Strip, and throughout the Gaza Strip, families continue to face dire conditions."

It explained that these families are being displaced repeatedly due to the ongoing shelling, and are seeking shelter in crowded UNRWA schools and temporary tents, and are struggling to access basic necessities.

It reiterated the "urgent need for an immediate ceasefire in the Gaza Strip, and ensuring unhindered access to humanitarian assistance that meets the growing needs."

The ongoing aggression waged by the occupation since October 7, 2023, has forced about two million of the Strip's citizens, numbering about 2.3 million Palestinians, to be displaced in tragic conditions with a deliberate severe shortage of food, water and medicine.

Famine has spread in most areas of the Gaza Strip as a result of the ongoing aggression, especially in the north, following the persistence of genocide and starvation to force citizens to migrate south.
