Some 100,000 people recently displaced from North Gaza are sheltering in schools, buildings, or makeshift sites in Gaza City, said a UN spokesman.
“The Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA) warns that in North Gaza governorate, virtually all incoming supplies and humanitarian services have ceased,” Stephane Dujarric told reporters during a briefing.
“This is due to the ongoing siege imposed by Israeli security forces, as well as insecurity limited supplies and the displacement of aid workers,” he added.
About 75,000 people are estimated to remain in North Gaza governorate, Dujarric said.
“With no electricity or fuel allowed since October 1, only two of eight water wells in Jabalia refugee camp remain functional, just partially,” he added.
Israel has continued its brutal offensive on the Gaza Strip following an attack by the Palestinian group Hamas last Oct. 7, despite a UN Security Council resolution calling for an immediate cease-fire.
The onslaught has resulted in over 43,200 Palestinian deaths, mostly women and children, and over 101,800 injuries, according to local health authorities.

Director-General of the Gaza Health Ministry Dr. Munir Al-Barash said “the Israeli occupation army killed more than 1,200 Palestinians in the North Gaza Governorate” in the last 27 days.
Al-Barash added the occupation army continues to commit massacres and target shelters and civilians in Beit Lahia and Jabalia, leaving dozens of martyrs and injured with an exhausted health system.
Al-Barash pointed out Israeli soldiers are carrying out all forms of killing and destruction because of the absence of any monitoring and/or the holding of any Israelis to account for these crimes.
“The occupation army is preventing the entry of medical supplies into northern Gaza and imposing a siege on the Kamal Adwan, Al-Awda, and Indonesian hospitals in the northern Gaza Strip.”
On 5 October, the Israeli occupation army began unprecedented bombing of the Jabalia camp and town and large areas in the northern Gaza Strip, before invading them the next day under the pretext of “preventing Hamas from regaining its strength,” while Palestinians say that Israel wants to occupy the area and displace its residents.
Since 7 October, 2023, Israel, with full American support, has been waging a war on Gaza, resulting in more than 144,000 Palestinian being killed and wounded, most of them children and women, and more than 10,000 missing, amid massive destruction and famine that killed dozens of children and the elderly, in one of the worst humanitarian disasters in the world according to Jordan24.
