UN warns of unacceptable humanitarian crisis in Gaza and West Bank

Gaza humanitarian crisis UN Security Council West Bank settlements Ramiz Alakbarov ceasefire fragility

Ramiz Alakbarov, the UN Assistant Special Coordinator for the Middle East Peace Process, addressed the UN Security Council regarding the deteriorating situation in Palestinian territories. He stated that the situation in Gaza remains unacceptable ten months after the ceasefire, noting that the truce remains fragile and Israeli airstrikes have intensified.

Alakbarov highlighted critical humanitarian gaps, reporting that approximately two-thirds of Gaza is inaccessible or heavily restricted. He also noted that only 40 percent of the required funding for Gaza has been secured this year. He urged for increased aid, fuel, and shelter materials to prevent civilians from spending another winter in tents.

Regarding the West Bank, Alakbarov described the situation as dire, asserting that Israeli settlement activities lack legal validity. He specifically warned against a new tender for over 1,200 housing units in the E1 area of East Jerusalem, arguing that such a move would effectively sever the northern and southern West Bank, undermining the possibility of a viable Palestinian state.
