Recent reports from the United Nations World Food Programme (WFP) indicate that humanitarian aid has not been able to pass through the southern crossings of the Gaza Strip for the past three days. This situation is particularly concerning given the current circumstances in Rafah, a city where approximately 1.4 million Palestinians are displaced and facing the threat of an advancing Israeli military.
As per the WFP's statement, only one bakery is operational in Rafah, highlighting the severe limitations on essential services in the area. The lack of access for humanitarian aid is exacerbating an already dire situation, with families at risk of running out of food supplies.
