UN warns life-saving aid may perish as Israel blocks entry into Gaza – Middle East Monitor

The United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees (UNRWA) has warned that life-saving humanitarian aid, blocked from entering Gaza since 2 March due to Israel’s closure of border crossings, is at risk of perishing in warehouses outside the besieged enclave.

“Humanitarian supplies — food, hygiene kits, medicine, shelter items — are sitting in warehouses outside #Gaza due to the blockade,” UNRWA said in a statement posted on its official Facebook page yesterday.
