OCHA again calls for ‘unimpeded humanitarian access’ into Gaza
The UN Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA) says it needs “unimpeded humanitarian access” into Gaza and across the entire besieged enclave to address the needs of some 2.1 million Palestinians this rainy season.
Here are other key highlights OCHA included in its situation report today:
- Dozens of learning spaces serving nearly 34,000 children are at risk of being severely affected by upcoming flooding.
- While humanitarian organisations are providing about 600,000 daily meals across Gaza, more than 1.4 million people did not receive their food rations in September due to dwindling supplies.
- Only four out of 37 olive presses remain functional throughout the enclave and more than 1 million olive trees have been uprooted since October 2023.
- Nearly 100 percent of Gaza’s population now lives in poverty, compared with 64 percent before the onset of Israel’s assault.
UK says working to help citizens leave Lebanon
The UK government is chartering a flight to help British nationals who want to leave Lebanon, the country’s Foreign Office said in a statement on X.
“If you are a British national in Lebanon, you should register your presence to receive the latest updates,” it said in a post on the social media platform, providing a link for those who wish to register.
The call comes as several airlines, including Air France, Emirates, Air Algerie and Turkish Airlines, temporarily suspend flights to the region.
