On Wednesday, UN assistance agencies warned that a limited amount of food items were being provided in Gaza, causing people suffer from malnutrition. For more than 20 million populations, access to food is becoming difficult.
Since Israel’s permission last month, only 6,000 tonnes of wheat flour reached the war -recognized region. However, the current situation, this amount is very low. The UN Humanitarian Assistance Coordination Agency (OCHA) says that 10,000 tonnes of wheat flour immediately requires.
OCHA spokesman Olga Chervaco told UN News Gaza Khan UNIS that the only way to improve the ground situation was to allow more boundary posts to be opened.
In Gaza, not only food, but many other things needed for protection such as fuel, cooking gas, shelter sites are also needed. In view of this, it has been requested to allow admission to the help of people with no obstruction.
Olga Chervaco has applied for Israeli officials to provide a safe and cooperative environment to smooth relief work. The time waiting for the humanitarian assistance mission should be reduced and the needy should ensure access.
He re -mentioned that someone should not be forced to risk their life to get relief. People are currently facing famine in Gaza.
UN Secretary -General Antonio Gutresh and Emergency Head Tom Flatcher, other UN officials, reached the help of “a drop in the Ocean”.
Touch
Although there are crowds in the Gaza market, there are two basic things: there is a huge shortage of cash and products.
In this situation, most people have only three options: Either try to get food assistance from the new aid distribution system supported by the United States and Israel, where many people have died in recent times; Or see your kids suffering from hunger; Or pay a lot of prices for the remaining and looted products in the market.
Akram Yusuf Yusuf, a local government employee in Gaza, told UN News Reporter, “The price of the product here is more expensive than Europe. The situation is very difficult, we have been living for two years in this situation.”
“Disposal, homeless, bombing, destruction, traders are also charging voluntary value with all this. Ordinary people can no longer make any burden. What do we do?”
Due to the war that has been going on for the past 20 months, life variations in Gaza have become unbearable, and here the price of living is now considered the highest in the world.
Passion
Ahmed al-Bahuri, a displaced displaced with his family from Beat Lahia, said that a packet of bread was found for about two dollars, ie about two dollars.
“There is no flour for children, no milk, no diapers, or nothing left to eat we we are constantly living in a hungry state.
The disadvantages of the Palestinians have increased since the war began after the Hamas terrorist attack on Israel in October 2023.
Now people are forced to withdraw funds from their Baine account and use phone applications to get pensions and go to local businessmen who charge a huge commission.
Government employee Yusuf said that he had to pay 20 percent commission to get his salary earlier, but now it has increased to about 5 percent.
‘Violent with the Dead’
Many residents of Gaza told the United Nations that now the price of one kilo of flour is about 100, which is about $ 29.
A Ashraf al-Deeri man said, “If the salary is 2,000 shekel, he is only survived after the commission cut off.”
“A average or small household daily expenditure of at least 500 shekel (about $ 143). So we are in a lot of trouble and we need any compassion and assistance.”
A young man named Rayad Tafesh expressed concern about high prices, especially most of his companions unemployed and they have no source of income. “We don’t earn a single shekel. We don’t have employment. We’re dying slowly.” We are also alous of the dead. “
The support attempt continues
On Monday, the UN parties succeeded in supplying some relief materials, basically flour through the Karem Shallam border border. This assistance was being shipped to Gaza, but hungry and sad people began to snatch it directly from the trucks.
There have been many incidents of looting and attacks on truck drivers, which have been completely rejected by the United Nations.
Ocha emphasized that Israel as a power force should take responsibility for maintaining public systems and protection in Gaza. The maximum number of assistance materials should be allowed to enter Gaza through border posts and paths, so that people’s needs can be met and robbed of robbery.
