UNRWA Commissioner-General Philippe Lazzarini said that Gaza is suffering from catastrophic hunger, stressing that 40% of the population is now at risk of famine.

He added: We need more aid. The only hope left is a humanitarian ceasefire.

He continued: This is not the time to exchange accusations and promote misleading information, and international humanitarian law is very clear: The State of Israel, as the occupying authority, must ensure that the population has access to basic services and provides them with them. Likewise.

He said: All parties to the conflict must work to facilitate the access of humanitarian aid to all those in need, and food, water, fuel and all humanitarian aid must never be used as a weapon of war.

He also said: UNRWA once again calls on the media to verify its reports and verify information, including statements by government officials, before publishing the information.
