Gaza Strip's Water Crisis: A Matter of Life and Death, Warns UN Agency

The United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees in the Near East (UNRWA) has warned that over two million Palestinians in the Gaza Strip are at risk due to limited access to clean water after Israel cut their water supplies. The agency has called the situation a "matter of life and death" and urged the delivery of fuel to make water available. Additionally, an electricity blackout enforced by Israel has further impacted the water supply. The UNRWA also highlighted the displacement of nearly one million people and the targeting of civilian infrastructure, including UN buildings, in the ongoing conflict. Efforts are underway to deliver humanitarian assistance to those in need.
