The humanitarian situation in the Gaza Strip is “more catastrophic”. The UN warns that more than 1 million people in southern and central Gaza did not receive humanitarian food rations in August.
“Despite the challenges we face, the UN and other humanitarian organizations continue to do everything possible to provide vital aid to the Palestinians,” said UN spokesman Stephane Dujarric.
The UN’s lead agency for Palestinian affairs the other day had announcedthat significant progress has been made in vaccinating children against poliomyelitis in the Gaza Strip. The organization also called for a permanent ceasefire to ease the humanitarian crisis.
