The United Nations Agency for Palestinian Refugees (UNRWA) has said the situation in Gaza amid Israel’s aid blockade is “becoming desperate”.

“It’s been over a month since the State of Israel banned the entry of aid and commercial supplies into Gaza,” the UNRWA said in a post on X.

The UN agency added: “UNRWA continues to provide assistance with whatever supplies remain. Stocks are getting low and the situation is becoming desperate.

“The siege must end and humanitarian aid must be allowed back in,” it demanded.
