In a post on X, the UN agency for Palestinian refugees says people in Gaza are experiencing “a cycle of deadly violence and deprivation”.

“Humanitarian aid and commercial supplies have been blocked from entering the Gaza Strip since 2 March by the Israeli authorities,” UNRWA said.

“Since the collapse of the ceasefire last month, intense military activities and hostilities have escalated”, killing and injuring hundreds of civilians. “The siege must be lifted.”
