People in Gaza have lost everything and need everything ... The only way to help is through the United Nations including UNWRA. UNWRA works. UNWRA has the expertise, experience and resources. The UN, including UNRWA, operated a system in Gaza with 400 distribution points—reaching people where they were. The current model excludes the most vulnerable.

Every day, millions have access to every single thing they need. But in #Gaza, essentials like toothbrushes, sanitary pads, and soap are unavailable. Access to basics is a right, not a privilege.

 

“There has been no safe, dignified and significant aid in #Gaza for more than three months now. 

 

People’s suffering is unconscionable, deepening further on a daily basis.

 

We have got to and must go back to bringing in aid at scale to people wherever they are and deliver it safely. 

 

The only way to do this is through the United Nations including UNRWA. 

 

We have the expertise, experience and resources. 

 

We demonstrated tangible impact during the ceasefire, when obstacles were lifted. 

 

Delaying the decision to properly respond to the deepening hunger will further push down people in Gaza to an endless bottom and deepen dehumanization.”

“We’re looking at boxes of food here… some of it expiring in July,” UNRWA

@UN_JWFOWLER tells  @NPR at the UNRWA warehouse in Amman. Food and other essential goods remain stuck just a three-hour drive from #Gaza. These are growing, but life-saving aid remains blocked, prevented from reaching those who need it most.
