From Philippe Lazzarini, the UNRWA Commissioner-General as posted on his official X account (previously known as Twitter)
Gaza: no fuel allowed into the enclave for more than four months now.
Without fuel, waste is piling up, clean water running out, clinics shutting down, electricity and telecoms patchy.
All is deepening the immense suffering of 2 million people who continue to endure de-humanization and humiliation: a collective punishment.
There must be a deal that will allow in a flow of basic supplies including fuel.
