UNRWA spokeswoman Louise Waterridge said on Friday that there has not been enough aid in the Gaza Strip throughout the brutal 13-month Israeli war, and that living conditions for Palestinians are "unbearable."

"There is simply not enough humanitarian aid in Gaza, not only in recent days and weeks, but also throughout the 13-month-long brutal Israeli war," the UNRWA spokeswoman said in press statements.

Describing the situation in the Gaza Strip, Waterridge said: “We are surrounded every day by people asking for pieces of bread, trying to get to water.”

Waterridge stressed that the situation in which Palestinians were forced to live in the Strip was "unbearable."

Recently, international and UN organizations warned against officially declaring famine in the northern Gaza Strip as a result of the ongoing Israeli genocide since October 5, coinciding with a comprehensive military siege that has prevented food, water, and medicine supplies from entering the Strip.

In the past weeks, a real crisis has begun to loom in the central and southern Gaza Strip, due to the depletion of flour and basic materials in the markets and homes of Palestinians, forcing them to use spoiled flour to feed their families, and to search for unhealthy alternatives.

The residents of Gaza and the North have previously suffered from a real "famine" in light of the scarcity of food, water, medicine and fuel, due to the siege imposed by the Israeli occupation on the two governorates since the beginning of its ground invasion on October 27, 2023, which caused the death of a number of children and the elderly.

Since October 7, 2023, Israel, the occupying power, has been committing genocide in Gaza, leaving more than 147,000 dead and wounded, most of them children and women, and more than 10,000 missing, amid massive destruction and famine that killed dozens of children and the elderly, in one of the worst humanitarian disasters in the world.

Israel continues its massacres, ignoring the UN Security Council resolution to end them immediately, and the International Court of Justice’s orders to take measures to prevent acts of genocide and improve the catastrophic humanitarian situation in Gaza.
