UNRWA Warns Gaza Humanitarian Crisis Deepens Amid Renewed Hostilities

The UN Relief and Works Agency (UNRWA) has issued a grave warning about the catastrophic loss of life in Gaza if a ceasefire is not resumed, highlighting the ongoing humanitarian crisis as bombings continue for a fourth consecutive night. More than 600 people have reportedly died since the ceasefire ended, with humanitarian supplies cut off for nearly 19 days. The World Health Organization (WHO) echoed these concerns, stating that the renewed hostilities endanger millions and calling for immediate action to protect civilians and aid workers. Israeli Minister Israel Katz has threatened further military action in Gaza if Hamas does not release hostages, exacerbating the situation. Meanwhile, Jordan's King Abdullah and French President Emmanuel Macron have called for the restoration of the ceasefire and the resumption of aid flows, emphasizing that there is no military solution to the conflict. These developments come amid accusations of violations of ceasefire agreements and increasing international calls for a resolution.
