In northern #Gaza , 4 bakeries reopened because of critical World Food Programme support.
But this is a drop in the ocean - and Israeli Authorities continue to prevent UNRWA’s food convoys from reaching the north.
We need safe & unimpeded access. Food supplies are a matter of life & death.
🔹According to Save the Children US & World Health Organization (WHO), the rate of attacks per month on healthcare in #Gaza is higher than in any other recent conflict globally
🔹Since the war began 180 UNRWA colleagues have been killed
🔹Over 270,000 tons of solid waste across #Gaza Strip remains uncollected

It shows that we have a framework to safeguard our neutrality - a key humanitarian principle - and we act when breaches occur.
This is crucial for our aid operation in Gaza and our work across the region.
The situation in the West Bank is worsening by the day including in #Palestine refugee camps.
The Israeli Security Forces’ recent operation in the Nour Shams camp caused loss of life + severe damage to people’s homes & public services.

A child is killed every 10 minutes in the📍 #GazaStrip
A deplorable number of children have also been injured amid intense and often indiscriminate attacks.
An immediate #Ceasefire is the last hope remaining.
