UN Urges Aid Deliveries and Safe Return for Palestinians in Gaza

Some Palestinians who evacuated the northern parts of the Gaza Strip due to Israeli airstrikes are now returning home from the south, despite the ongoing heavy bombing, as they feel they might as well die in their own houses. The UN expresses concern over the continuing airstrikes and difficult living conditions in the south, which have prompted some to migrate back north. The Gaza Strip, home to over 2 million Palestinians, has been cut off from essential supplies since Hamas' surprise attack, leading to high-level negotiations for aid. UN Secretary General Antonio Guterres calls for international cooperation to ensure humanitarian aid reaches Palestinians.
