UNRWA Warns Gaza Crisis Worsens After Nine-Week Israeli Blockade Affecting Over 2 Million Palestinians; Unprecedented West Bank Displacement

The humanitarian crisis in the Gaza Strip has worsened as the Israeli blockade enters its third consecutive month, severely restricting the entry of food, water, and essential supplies into the enclave, which is home to over 2 million Palestinians. The United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees (UNRWA) has described the situation as "beyond imagination," warning that the complete blocking of supplies has persisted for nine weeks. UNRWA has called for a concerted international effort to prevent the crisis from escalating to an unprecedented level. Additionally, UNRWA highlighted an unprecedented scale of displacement and destruction in the West Bank, noting it is the worst since 1967.
