The protracted crisis in the occupied Palestinian territory is now approachingits 50th year and continues to be characterized by conflict, lack of access to basic services and frequent outbreaks of violence. In October 2015 the con­flict, including violent clashes between Palestinian civilians and Israeli forces, es­calated and spread out from East Jerusalem. In the Gaza Strip, basic infrastruc­ture and services have deteriorated due to years of blockade and outbreaks of hostilities.<\/p><\/div>\n

Across the occupied Palestinian territory there is 26% food insecurity and 25% poverty. OCHA estimates that 2.3 million people need humanitarian assist­ance, including 1.2 million refugees.<\/p><\/div>\n
