Unexpectedly, the escalation in the Besieged Strip has once again flared up, instilling fears and concerns among the civilian population regarding the dire consequences of this escalation. Disturbingly, the Palestinian Ministry of Health has reported dozens of casualties and hundreds of injuries.
In response to the escalating violence, the civilian population residing near the eastern border of the the besieged Strip has been compelled to seek refuge in UNRWA schools, while others have sought shelter with their relatives. The relentless conflict has brought life to a standstill in the Besieged Strip, prompting the Ministry of Education to suspend studies indefinitely. Additionally, government departments and commercial establishments have closed their doors to citizens.
The Besieged Strip, already burdened by an enduring 18-year-long closure and grappling with severe humanitarian conditions, urgently requires comprehensive humanitarian intervention to address its pressing needs.
