United Nations warns of a terrifying deterioration of the situation in Gaza as a result of the Israeli aggression

New York, (ST) – The United Nations Humanitarian Coordinator in the occupied Palestinian territories, Lynn Hastings warned that the expansion of the scope of the Israeli aggression in the Gaza Strip could lead to a more terrifying scenario that humanitarian operations may be unable to deal with.

AP quoted Hastings as saying in a statement: The expansion of Israeli ground operations towards the south of the Gaza Strip has forced tens of thousands of other Palestinians to seek refuge in areas facing increasing pressure, where they are desperate in their efforts to find food, water, shelter and safety.

Hastings said that there is no safe place in Gaza and there is no place left to go to it. She added: What we are witnessing today is embodied in shelter centers without capabilities, a collapsed health system, the lack of clean drinking water, the absence of adequate sanitation, and malnutrition among the people.

In her statement, Hastings expressed her regret that the conditions required to deliver aid to people in Gaza are not available.

Hastings said: A far more terrifying scenario is about to unfold, and it is a scenario that humanitarian operations may not have the ability to respond to, if it were to come true. She said that the quantities of relief supplies and fuel that have been allowed to enter are not sufficient at all.

Hastings stressed that the space available for the humanitarian response that is allowed to be provided inside Gaza is constantly shrinking.
