AhlulBayt News Agency: The Commissioner-General of UNRWA Philippe Lazzarini said on Tuesday that no words are left to describe the situation in Gaza.
“We are running out of words to describe the situation in Gaza, he said.
“Our colleagues describe a post-apocalyptic environment and people are just living among garbage, sewage water, in the rubble, and they are struggling because they are confronted on a daily basis with death, hunger and disease,” he added.
The UN Senior Humanitarian and Reconstruction Coordinator for Gaza, Sigrid Kaag, also described the situation in Gaza as “utterly devastating.”
I have painted a very bleak picture as civilians in Gaza continue to suffer, she said.
Along the same line, the Director-General of the World Health Organization, Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, said that the conditions in Kamal Adwan Hospital in the northern Gaza Strip are simply appalling.
WHO and partners reached Kamal Adwan Hospital in northern Gaza two days ago, amid hostilities and explosions in the vicinity of the hospital during the mission, he said.
The team delivered 5000 liters of fuel, food and medicines, and transferred 3 patients and 6 companions to Al-Shifa Hospital, he further clarified.
“In the last week, four WHO missions to Kamal Adwan have been arbitrarily denied, including the re-deployment of the international emergency medical team, which had self-evacuated from the hospital on 6 December due to hostilities.”
“Hostilities around the hospital continue and recent attacks have further damaged the oxygen supply, generators, and broken windows and doors of the patients’ rooms.”
For over 438 days, the Israeli war machine — armed by the US and some European countries — has been claiming the lives of civilians, including women and children, with no regard for any international resolutions and condemnations.
