Humanitarian needs in Gaza remain immense amid ongoing displacement and shortages of water and medicine, a report by envoys to Gaza’s Board of Peace presented to the UN Security Council says. It also states that “the main obstacle to implementing the comprehensive plan for the reconstruction of the sector remains Hamas’s refusal to disarm and relinquish control”. The report says “investment in Gaza is contingent on this condition despite the large international pledges” but “there is a large gap between these pledges and the actual spending of funds on the ground”.
