Gaza faces risk of drought, disease due to lack of fuel to operate water wells: UNRWA
The United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees (UNRWA) warned on Monday that the risk of drought and disease threatens the residents of Gaza due to the lack of fuel to operate water wells, especially in the north of the Strip, which has been subjected to an escalation in the genocide for about 50 days.
The agency said in a post on X, "People in Gaza face a constant risk of drought and disease as a result of the water wells stopping working due to the lack of fuel that prevents them from working."
It added, "In the besieged north of Gaza alone, about 70,000 people struggle to obtain clean water," indicating that "this basic human right remains out of reach for many."
"A ceasefire must be reached now," it stressed.
130,000 Gaza children under 10 deprived of food, medicine amid siege
Meanwhile, Save the Children reported that around 130,000 children under 10 in northern Gaza have been besieged for 50 days without access to food, water, or medical supplies, following "Israel's" declaration of the area as a "closed military zone" on October 6, 2024.
These children, as per the children's advocacy group, are also facing the looming threat of famine, with the independent Famine Review Committee warning that the situation could be dire.
Humanitarian efforts have been hindered by the refusal of Israeli forces to allow aid groups access to northern Gaza, leaving Save the Children unable to deliver essential supplies like food parcels, hygiene kits, and other aid materials for thousands of families.
The advocacy group had previously supported 15,000 children and families in the area, providing food, hygiene kits, and psychosocial support before the blockade.
