Lazzarini: Zionist enemy is still preventing entry of humanitarian aid into northern Gaza Strip

GAZA, Oct. 21 (YPA) – The Commissioner-General of the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees (UNRWA), Philippe Lazzarini, on Monday, confirmed that the Zionist enemy is still preventing the entry of humanitarian aid into the northern Gaza Strip.

“Palestinians in northern Gaza are under siege,” Lazzarini said in a post on the X platform, pointing out that the Israeli attacks in the region targeted hospitals, leaving them without electricity and depriving the wounded of health services.”

He stated that Israel is preventing humanitarian missions from delivering vital aid such as medicine and food to the area, stressing the need to allow relief organizations, including UNRWA, to enter northern Gaza.

“Preventing humanitarian aid or using it as a weapon to achieve military goals is an indication of how low the moral compass is,” he added.

In addition, he also pointed out to the severe overcrowding in UNRWA shelters due to Israel’s intensified attacks.
