The United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees (UNRWA) said on Sunday that more than 415,000 displaced people are currently sheltering in its school buildings in Gaza, while hundreds of thousands more are living "in worse conditions in temporary shelters."

This came in a post on the X platform, accompanied by a video clip filmed by one of the displaced women from her place of displacement, in which she narrated the difficulties and challenges facing the displaced in these buildings designated only for education, especially for women.

UNRWA said: "More than 415,000 displaced people in Gaza are now sheltering in UNRWA school buildings... hundreds of thousands more are trying to survive in even worse conditions inside temporary shelters."

Regarding the displaced woman who appears in the video clip, the agency said: “Aisha, one of the displaced women, says: This place is for education, not for housing,” expressing her suffering and highlighting “the additional harsh challenges facing women and girls in war.”

It said: "This is where I live. I left my home and my beautiful place to come to this place that does not have the necessities of life."

It added: "We are here as displaced Palestinian women who suffer greatly in terms of health and economic conditions and the provision of food and drink without any support or assistance."

It continued: "Life's facilities are far from us, the toilet is far away, there is no place to prepare food or rest, and the place where we are is not safe and is at risk of being bombed at any moment," stressing that "there is no security in all of Gaza, they have deprived us of the right to security and protection."

It continued her appeal: “It is our right that you protect us in times of war. We, as Palestinian women, are suffering. We need your support. Protect us and defend us. We want you to provide women who are not at fault in this war with a decent life so that we can confront society and life.”

It stressed that "the war has taken its toll on the women of Gaza, who are very tired, while it is impossible to provide any of their needs, including hygiene and sterilization supplies during menstruation," and said: "At this time of the month, women are destroyed."

It stressed: “This place is designated for education, and it is not suitable for living. It is full of insects, flies and cockroaches. There is no sanitary facility that we need in our daily lives.”

In a non-final tally, the number of martyrs since the beginning of the occupation's aggression on the Gaza Strip, since October 7, 2023, has risen to 44,382 martyrs, the majority of whom are women and children, and more than 105,142 injured, as thousands of victims are still under the rubble and on the roads, and ambulance and rescue crews cannot reach them.

Israel continues its massacres, ignoring two arrest warrants issued by the International Criminal Court on November 21 against its Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and its former Minister of Defense Yoav Galant, for committing war crimes and crimes against humanity against the Palestinians.
