The UN said Israeli authorities blocked more than half of the 115 planned humanitarian aid deliveries to northern Gaza in June, Anadolu Agency reports.

Speaking at a news conference, spokesman to the secretary general, Stephane Dujarric, said there are “little or no” available shelters or critical supplies in the areas where people have been forcibly displaced.

Aid distribution through the Kerem Shalom crossing was “nearly impossible” due to security and fuel shortages, he added.
