According to the UN Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs, attacks in Rafah continue unabated and civilians displaced by the hostilities have no shelter, food and water and other supplies necessary for their survival.
The UN Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA) reported that the intensification of hostilities and the issuance of evacuation orders have displaced more than 940,000 people from Rafah in the past three weeks, while 100,000 have been displaced from northern Gaza.
According to the OCHA update, the attacks in Rafah continue unabated and the civilians displaced by the hostilities have no shelter, nor food and water and other supplies necessary for their survival. Health facilities in the region continue to face dire shortages of fuel and medical supplies, while also dealing with rising casualties from injuries and burns.
The UN’s humanitarian partners also reported that while the Kerem Shalom crossing remains open, it is extremely difficult for humanitarian organizations to gain access from the Gaza side, due to hostilities, difficult conditions and complex coordination processes.
“Despite the difficulties, we managed to deliver aid with 43 trucks to the location of Kerem Shalom. But access restrictions continue to prevent the delivery of life-saving humanitarian aid to the Gaza Strip. “Between May 1 and 26, 137 humanitarian aid missions could be forwarded to areas requiring coordination across Gaza by Israeli authorities, 86 missions were hindered because they were delayed in obtaining approvals and 43 were canceled by humanitarian aid coordinators,” the spokesman for the DG said. , Stéphane Dujarric during the press briefing at the UN headquarters in New York.
