Cutting off communications across the Gaza Strip has only made humanitarian work even more difficult. The UN and other NGOs say they have lost contact with their agencies in the enclave.
Israeli army spokesman Daniel Hagari said on Saturday that they will step up “humanitarian efforts” and that more trucks with help They will invade the southern Gaza Strip.
“To all Gazans who have moved to the southern Gaza Strip, we will step up our humanitarian efforts,” Hagari said in a televised address after announcing the expansion of Israeli ground incursions into the Palestinian enclave last night.
Yesterday, a team of ten foreign doctors entered Gaza through the Egyptian Rafah border crossing, along with a convoy consisting of another ten trucks loaded with humanitarian aid, but without fuel.
The Gaza Strip has been located since yesterday “completely blacked out”, where all communication is lost. As indicated today in the UN Coordination Office’s daily report on the conflict, both the World Health Organization (WHO) and the United Nations Children’s Fund (UNICEF) they have lost communication with his staff in Gaza.
The Palestinian Red Crescent has also warned of the “complete” loss of contact with the operations room in the Gaza Strip and all its teams there.
Humanitarian operations “cannot continue without communication,” the United Nations Humanitarian Coordinator for Palestine, Lynn Hastings, warned from Jerusalem.
