GAZA CITY (Dispatches) – More than 90,000 displaced Palestinians are currently taking shelter in 115 UN-run facilities across the Gaza Strip amid a humanitarian crisis caused by the Zionist regime’s 19-month onslaught, the UN agency for Palestinian refugees (UNRWA) says.
“An already dire situation is deteriorating due to bombardment and the siege blocking the entry of humanitarian and commercial supplies,” UNRWA said in a statement.
Since March 2, 2025, the Zionist regime has kept all Gaza border crossings closed, blocking the entry of essential food, medical, and relief supplies, exacerbating an already dire humanitarian situation, according to multiple reports from international organizations and rights groups.
The UN refugee agency estimated that nearly 420,000 people have been displaced yet again since the breakdown of the ceasefire in March.
The Zionist regime’s army resumed its assaults on Gaza on March 18, and has since killed 1,827 people, injured, and shattered a Jan. 19 ceasefire and prisoner exchange agreement.
More than 51,200 Palestinians have been killed in Gaza in a brutal Israeli onslaught since October 2023, most of them women and children.
