International Community Urged to Take Immediate Action on Gaza's Humanitarian Crisis

International Desk | PNN

The World Health Organization (WHO) has reported that 15,000 Palestinians in Gaza are waiting for medical treatment, but they are unable to receive care due to the closure of the Rafah border crossing. Amid this crisis, Gaza's healthcare infrastructure has become even more devastated.

Meanwhile, some of the 54 unidentified Palestinian bodies returned to Gaza through Israel show signs of torture and killing. These bodies have been buried in a mass grave in Deir al-Balah.

According to the World Health Organization, had these numerous injured Palestinians received medical care, their lives could have been saved, but many are dying due to a lack of treatment.

Additionally, amid Gaza’s ongoing crisis, reports have surfaced about a group of Palestinian children and their family members being rescued, who have been enduring severe physical and mental suffering for a long period.

Regardless of the situation in Gaza, the United Nations' humanitarian aid agency (OCHA) has extended its assistance to Gaza. On October 21, they launched operations to provide food aid, clean water, and psychological support to 30,000 families. Furthermore, safe spaces have been established for women and children, where they can seek protection from various forms of violence.

There has been deep international concern over the matter, particularly due to the strict restrictions on journalists' freedom in Gaza. Israel's Supreme Court had scheduled a hearing on an appeal demanding that journalists be allowed to enter Gaza freely.

Meanwhile, Israeli forces have launched operations in various parts of Gaza, killing another Palestinian. This has further worsened the situation in Gaza.

In this context, there has been a call for the international community to take immediate action to address Gaza's humanitarian crisis.
