The United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees (UNRWA) said that the stifling blockade imposed by the Israeli occupation authorities on the Gaza Strip for nearly seven weeks is the most severe since the start of the aggression on October 7, 2023.

This came in a report published by the agency on Friday regarding the current situation in the Gaza Strip, which has been subjected to Israeli aggression for more than a year and a half.

UNRWA stated that 420,000 citizens have been displaced again in the Gaza Strip since March 18 due to the renewed aggression.

The agency confirmed that the lack of humanitarian aid entering Gaza and the ongoing blockade imposed by Israel for nearly seven weeks are more severe than the initial period following October 7, 2023.

She stated that as a result of the blockade, vital humanitarian supplies in Gaza, including food, fuel, medical aid, and vaccines for children, are rapidly running out.

She pointed out that many civilians have lost their lives due to the occupation's bombing since the ceasefire agreement was violated on March 18.
