At its worst, it is a humanitarian crisis

The humanitarian crisis in Gaza is now going through one of its most critical phasesThe war between Israeli forces and Hamas continued for approximately three months.

Despite efforts to resolve the situation even slightly, by transporting supplies, more and more heartbreaking moments are unfolding every day.

The complaint of the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees is also typical, according to what was stated The humanitarian aid needed to meet the massive needs is not reaching Gaza.

“The longer these evacuation orders continue to be issued by the Israeli authorities…we will see the continued displacement of people in search of safety, in search of shelter…a combination of war, siege and lack of basic supplies has led to…unprecedented levels of hunger and starvation.”UNRWA spokeswoman Juliette Touma said:

All of the above is also confirmed by the cry for help launched by UNICEF members, as water and sanitation services in Gaza are on the verge of collapse.

UNICEF says the deteriorating humanitarian situation across the Strip increases the risk of widespread disease outbreaks.

The tragedy does not end there. Children are forced to drink salted or polluted waterWhich exposes them to the risk of death and disease.
