The Gaza director for the UN agency for Palestinian refugees, Thomas White, revealed dire conditions in the region following recent conflict. Despite UN efforts to provide two pieces of Arabic bread to each resident, the primary concern has shifted to access to water. White described Gaza as a “scene of death and destruction,” emphasizing the urgent need for humanitarian aid. With disrupted water supply lines and limited fuel, essential services like hospitals, water desalination plants, and electricity distribution are at risk. The UN called for humanitarian pauses to deliver aid and emphasized the need for a ceasefire.
