UNRWA Half a Million Palestinians Trapped in Gaza City

Khaberni - The United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees (UNRWA) said that about half a million Palestinians are still trapped within an area not exceeding 8 square kilometers inside Gaza City, under extremely difficult humanitarian conditions.
Adnan Abu Hasna, spokesperson for UNRWA, stated in a post on platform (X) today, Monday, that "about 70,000 people are crowded in each square kilometer in the southern areas of the sector, and Israel demands civilians to move there despite the lack of the bare necessities of life".
Abu Hasna also emphasized that "there is not enough space to erect even one tent", highlighting that tens of thousands of families are at risk of remaining in the open, without shelter or basic humanitarian services".
He called for an immediate cessation of fire in the Gaza Strip and allowing humanitarian aid to be delivered as fast as possible to the affected areas, stressing that the situation "requires urgent international action to save lives".
