London - Saba:
Oxfam International confirmed on Monday that nearly two million people in the Gaza Strip have almost completely lost their livelihoods.
In a statement, the organization's spokesperson, Hadeel Qazzaz, explained that nothing has entered the Gaza Strip for 40 days, and residents are exhausting their last remaining resources and capabilities.
She said, "We have limited capabilities to provide financial aid to citizens in the Strip, and although we are able to distribute in-kind items, the closure of the crossings has prevented this."
Qazzaz expressed concern about water quality due to the accumulation of waste and the mixing of groundwater with sewage.
She also confirmed that the closure of the crossings has prevented the entry of water purification plants and materials.
