Humanitarian Crisis in Gaza: Ceasefire and Aid Under Threat

The ongoing humanitarian crisis in Gaza remains precarious as a UN humanitarian chief reports that while famine has mostly been averted due to recent aid efforts, the situation could rapidly deteriorate if the ceasefire collapses. Since the ceasefire began, approximately 10,000 aid trucks have reached the enclave, providing essential support to over a million people. However, Gaza authorities are pleading for more assistance, particularly tents for displaced families, as they accuse Israel of obstructing aid deliveries. Rights groups and Palestinian officials have echoed these concerns, warning of severe disruptions to aid as the conflict continues. The humanitarian official emphasized that a resurgence of famine remains a significant danger if peace efforts fail.
