The head of the UN’s agency for Palestinian refugees (UNRWA) says Israeli authorities continue to deny humanitarian access to Gaza.
Philippe Lazzarini himself was denied access to the besieged enclave for the second time this week, he said, also reporting “an increase in the denial of humanitarian access and attacks on humanitarian workers and convoys”.
“Only in the past 2 weeks, we have recorded 10 incidents involving shooting at convoys, arrests of UN staff including bullying, stripping them naked, threats with arms & long delays at checkpoints forcing convoys to move during the dark or abort.”
