GAZA,(The Palestinian Information Center)UNRWA spokesman Adnan Abu Hasna has said that Gaza City is facing “conditions beyond catastrophe” as the Israeli occupation forces have intensified their attacks in the city’s neighborhoods.
“In addition to the recently declared famine, humanitarian relief operations provided to the residents of Gaza City have been severely affected, especially with regard to healthcare, water and sanitation, and waste collection,” spokesman Abu Hasna explained.
He pointed out that many families found themselves forced to move to the western area of Gaza City, which is an extremely crowded zone that has no basic services.
As the Israeli army attempts to displace around one million Gaza City residents towards so-called evacuation zones in the southern part of the Gaza Strip, UNRWA has warned that no space is available.
“Gaza City residents are unable to travel to the southern Gaza Strip,” UNRWA told Al Jazeera Arabic on Sunday. “There are no places in the southern Gaza Strip for Gaza City residents to seek refuge.”
The agency warned that Gaza’s largest urban hub was witnessing a near-total collapse of the humanitarian system, while municipal services are almost non-existent.
“What is happening in Gaza City is the most dangerous since the beginning of the war,” it said.
