GENEVA August 20. 2024 (Saba) –The United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA) has warned that the catastrophic humanitarian situation in the Gaza Strip is deteriorating, due to repeated waves of displacement, overcrowding, insecurity, collapsing infrastructure, ongoing hostilities, and limited services.
According to humanitarian workers in Gaza, the latest Israeli evacuation order issued last Saturday affected some 13,500 displaced people in 18 locations, and they said that this order includes the entire area of the Maghazi camp, and several other neighborhoods in Deir al-Balah, in the central Gaza Strip.
The Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA) warned that the ongoing hostilities, evacuation orders, and severe shortages of essential materials are making it more difficult for displaced families to access basic services in the locations they arrive at.
