The United Nations Office for Humanitarian Affairs warned on Thursday that "time is running out, and obstacles to accessing aid persist in the Gaza Strip."

The statement emphasized that "over 1.1 million people in Gaza are facing severe levels of food insecurity," asserting that "there is no alternative to delivering aid by land to save lives, particularly in northern Gaza."

Earlier, on Wednesday, Ismail Al-Thawabteh, the Director General of the Government Media Office in Gaza, warned that the nightmare of famine in the northern Gaza Strip will continue if aid is not delivered on a sustainable basis.

Al-Thawabteh explained that the Gaza Strip needs aid to be delivered by land, air, and sea, adding that what is being delivered does not amount to 5% of the needs.

He also expressed deep sorrow for the deaths of martyrs as a result of the mistaken airdrop of aid, calling on the countries of the world to deliver it through the proper and correct channels.

Al-Thawabteh condemned the crime of closing the land crossings with Gaza, urging the international community to bypass the measures imposed by the occupation in order to impose its will on the Rafah crossing.

These statements come as the occupation continues its war on Gaza, which has been ongoing for 174 days, striking all aspects of life and deliberately practicing starvation against the people of the Gaza Strip amid a suffocating siege exacerbated by the closure of land crossings and the prohibition of the entry of aid.
