Palestinians starving amid ‘humanitarian tsunami’: UNRWA spokesman
Speaking to Al Jazeera from Rafah in southern Gaza, Adnan Abu Hasna says about 100 trucks of aid are expected to arrive in the enclave today, about half of which will go to the UN agency for Palestinian refugees.
But this falls far short of what’s required, he said: “We need hundreds of trucks per day; there is a huge need. Without letting hundreds of truck [in] … we will suffer a lot, the population will suffer a lot.”
Abu Hasna said he lacked the words to describe what is needed in Gaza, from food and medicine to clothes and tents to house displaced families.
“It’s a catastrophe; it’s a tsunami, a humanitarian tsunami, actually – it’s not only a catastrophe.”
