The volume of goods that entered Gaza this weekend is only a fraction of what is needed after days of complete siege. UN Relief Chief has urged for an increase in aid access to at least 100 trucks a day.
UNRWA confirmed another six staff have been killed, bringing the total to 35 staff killed. Additionally, at least 40 UNRWA installations have been damaged since the violence began on 7 October.

More aid arrived in Gaza on Sunday aboard 14 trucks that passed through the Rafah crossing with Egypt, the UN Humanitarian Affairs Coordinator said in a post on social media.
However, UNRWA warned that its fuel supply will run out in 3 days. Agency chief Lazzarini urged ‘all parties and those with influence over them’ to immediately allow fuel supplies into Gaza.
Aid deliveries into #Gaza have not included fuel. @UNRWA fuel reserves will be depleted within a couple of days.
“Without fuel, there will be no humanitarian assistance,” warns Philippe Lazzarini, UNRWA Commissioner General.

In a joint statement, five UN agencies said that the aid that entered Gaza on Saturday “is only a small beginning and far from enough”. They warned that “Gaza was a desperate humanitarian situation before the most recent hostilities. It is now catastrophic. The world must do more,” they said.
