The spokesman for the civil defence agency in Gaza provided Al Jazeera with an update on conditions in northern Gaza after Israel’s weeks-long siege of the area.
According to a translated summary of his statement, over 100,000 people are without food, water, and medicine amid continuous Israeli bombings targeting inhabited homes in the region.
“The local medical system and civil defence are out of service,” said the statement. “The Israeli army is not allowing rescue operations and the recovery of victims.”
