UNRWA: Half a million people displaced again in the Gaza Strip in the last month

The United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees (UNRWA) announced on Friday that nearly half a million people have been displaced again in the Gaza Strip over the past month, due to multiple evacuation orders issued by the Israeli occupation forces.


UNRWA explained, in a statement published on its official platforms, that the recent displacement has left Palestinians confined to less than a third of Gaza's original area, noting that these remaining areas are "fragmented, unsafe, and almost uninhabitable."


The agency confirmed that overcrowded shelters are suffering from catastrophic conditions, while service providers are facing significant difficulties operating amid a near-total depletion of available resources.
