The UN Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs warned of deteriorating conditions in Gaza, with spokesman Jens Larke citing a severe shelter crisis, restricted access for aid workers, and acute funding shortages, Shehab Wire reported. The agency said 94 percent of the territory's population requires immediate assistance with shelter and essential supplies as the humanitarian situation compounds.
Larke cautioned that conditions will continue to worsen without urgent intervention to address the access constraints and financial gaps hampering aid delivery across the enclave. The warning underscores the scale of need facing civilians in Gaza amid ongoing restrictions on humanitarian operations.
