Louis Wateries said that malnourished children and families have been badly tired of the ongoing war for months. They are constantly struggling with the limited accessibility of heat, dirt, clean water and health care. The Kuda-waste is out of control. Sewer, rats, insects are seen in places where people have taken shelter at the moment. As the days are getting hot, the disease is spreading. There are not enough medicines for treatment here. UNRWA teams are engaged in the cleanliness drive with the intention of ensuring cleanliness, but they have the resources. “They have left pesticides for nearly 10 days. The supply is ending.” For humanitarian aid, the UN office (OCHAAccording to), more than 30 vehicles required to maintain waste management, water supply and sewer system, the Israeli bombed during April 21-22. In the last one week, tents made for the displaced in at least 23 incidents of bombing have also been hit, including common citizens including women, children and disabled people. The system continues to be covered. Health centers which are being provided care services, are about half of them in areas where the Israeli army has issued orders to vacate the place. This is proving difficult for the needy communities to reach these centers. Also, drugs, equipment and medical workers are also repulsed. According to an estimate, till April 15, 4.20 lakh people have been displaced. A large number of people have been forced to displace for the second or third time. Over-important humanitarian aid materials have not entered Gaza for the last 52 days. During April 15 to 21, about 50 percent of the activities targeted on human aid were not allowed or rejected.
