From Philippe Lazzarini, the UNRWA Commissioner-General as posted on his official X account (previously known as Twitter)

Before the spread of famine, community-based distribution centres supported by partners, provided food and assistance to two million people, spread across the Gaza Strip.

Five months on the ongoing attempts to replace the UN coordinated response by four Israeli militarized distribution points, hunger has become the latest killer in Gaza.

It¡¯s time for unhindered, safe and dignified assistance.

Let the UN and our partners do their job.
