We’re not receiving any aid into the #GazaStrip, the #Rafah crossing area has ongoing military operations - there have been continued bombardments in this area throughout the day. No fuel or aid has entered into #GazaStrip and this is disastrous for the humanitarian response.

"Everybody up here needs everything" During a joint United Nations mission to Gaza City yesterday to deliver urgent food, medical supplies & hygiene kits in two school-turned-shelters, Scott Anderson describes the "really basic needs" the population in north #Gaza still have.

Yesterday in the Nasser Medical Complex in Khan Younis, I witnessed some of the most horrific scenes I have seen in my 9 months in #Gaza This overstretched health facility admitted well over 100 severe injuries. Civilians must be protected at all times ⬇️ ochaopt.org/content/statem…

🔹 Scott Anderson described the Nasser Medical Complex in Khan Younis as overstretched with not enough medical beds, hygiene equipment, and a lack of full services due to limited fuel and electricity. 🔹 Only 10 out of 26 UNRWA health centres in the #GazaStrip are now operational.

How much more do those in power need to see before they act? It's time they #ActForHumanity! International humanitarian law is being violated, and civilians and aid workers are paying the price. This #WorldHumanitarianDay, Muzoon Al-Mellehan added her voice. Add yours and share.

On #WorldHumanitarianDay, we remember + pay tribute to aid workers killed & injured around the world. In #Gaza, there have been way too many of them since the war started 10 months ago. At least 289 aid workers including 207 UNRWA team members & 885 health workers lost

UNRWA is the largest primary healthcare provider in #Gaza, contributing to over half the health services provided to people. 85 medical points and 9 out of 26 UNRWA health centres are still operational. Health workers & facilities must be protected at all times #ActforHumanity

"It's very disheartening when you see children looking through garbage trying to find something they can sell or eat." Scott Anderson tells CNN the humanitarian situation in #Gaza is the worst he has ever seen, with diseases such as polio creeping up on children.
