UNRWA: Gaza Residents Face New Forced Displacement

The United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees in the Near East (UNRWA) affirmed that Gazans face new forced displacement amid loss of hope and uncertainty about safety due to the lack of a safe place to go. UNRWA Senior Communications Officer Louise Wateridge said that "Palestinian families in the Gaza Strip have nowhere safe to go." "People are losing hope, they are losing the willpower, faced with another forced displacement and absolutely no certainty of safety", Wateridge added. She stressed that the residents of the Gaza Strip have nowhere safe to go, and therefore there must be a ceasefire now. The Israeli occupation forces have continued their unprecedented aggression, on land, at sea, and in the air, against the Gaza Strip since Oct. 7, 2023, which resulted in the martyrdom of 38,098 Palestinians and the injury of 87,705 others, while thousands of victims remain under rubble and on the roads, where ambulance and civil defense crews cannot reach them.
