The United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine refugees (UNRWA) announced Tuesday that around 1 million people have fled Rafah in the past three weeks.
"This happened with nowhere safe to go amidst bombardments, lack of food and water, piles of waste and unsuitable living conditions. Day after day, providing assistance and protection becomes nearly impossible", UNRWA said in a statement.
The Israeli occupation forces continue their brutal aggression against the Gaza Strip, by launching dozens of air strikes, artillery shelling, and fire belts, committing bloody massacres against civilians, and carrying out horrific crimes in the areas of incursion, amid a catastrophic humanitarian situation due to the siege and the displacement of more than 90 percent of the population.
