New York, Sept. 9 (Petra) — UN Spokesperson Stéphane Dujarric warned
on Wednesday that stockpiles of essential supplies in Gaza remain
critically insufficient, driven by severe funding shortfalls and
continued stringent restrictions on the ability of UN partners to
replenish reserves.
Citing UN humanitarian partners during a press briefing, Dujarric
stated that Israeli airstrikes and attacks continue to strike
populated areas, placing civilians at grave risk and causing
widespread property damage.
He highlighted an Israeli airstrike on Tuesday that hit a building in
Bureij, near Deir al-Balah, in proximity to two UN-run schools
serving as temporary shelters for displaced persons, as well as a
UN-backed bakery, resulting in approximately 100 families losing
their shelters and belongings.
Dujarric reaffirmed the imperative that civilians and civilian
infrastructure including humanitarian shelters and facilities must be
protected at all times.
