The UN and its humanitarian partners have been unable to deliver urgently needed aid to northern Gaza for three days due to conflict and delays and denial of access. UN associate spokeswoman Florencia Soto Nino told reporters that the halt to deliveries north of Wadi Gaza included “medicines that would have provided vital support to more than 100,000 people for 30 days, as well as eight trucks of food for people who currently face catastrophic and life-threatening food insecurity”.
