Palestine: UNRWA calls for increased aid to Gaza

The United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees in the Near East (UNRWA) called for increased aid to Gaza, which is currently suffering a severe crisis due to Israeli aggression. The director of communications for the UN agency, Jonathan Fowler, warned that every day, or even every hour that is lost, is another life that will be lost. He explained that UNRWA has an extensive aid distribution network that can reverse the famine, but accused the Israeli authorities of preventing it from delivering supplies to the coastal enclave, where more than two million Palestinians live. The humanitarian situation there remains catastrophic, said Fowler, who welcomed the recent ceasefire agreement between the Islamic Resistance Movement Hamas and Israel.
