Humanitarian conditions in Gaza continue to worsen as civilians face severe shortages of water, medicine, and other essential supplies, according to a report presented to the United Nations Security Council.
The report was submitted by envoys connected to Gaza’s Board of Peace and highlighted the growing suffering of people living in the territory. It stated that many families remain displaced because of the ongoing conflict and destruction across Gaza.
According to the report, humanitarian needs are still “immense” as hospitals struggle with limited medical supplies and damaged infrastructure. Access to clean water also remains a major problem for thousands of civilians.
The report further stated that one of the biggest obstacles to rebuilding Gaza is Hamas’s refusal to disarm and hand over control of the territory. It argued that many international donors and countries are unwilling to fully invest in reconstruction projects unless there is political and security stability in Gaza.
Although large amounts of financial aid and reconstruction support have been promised by international partners, the report said there is still a major gap between those pledges and the actual delivery of funds on the ground.
The Board of Peace urged the UN Security Council to increase pressure on Hamas and other Palestinian groups to accept a proposed political roadmap aimed at ending the crisis and supporting long-term recovery efforts.
The humanitarian situation in Gaza has drawn global concern for months, with international organisations repeatedly warning about worsening living conditions, shortages of food and medicine, and the risk of further instability in the region.
Many countries and aid agencies continue to call for increased humanitarian access, ceasefire efforts, and a political solution that could allow reconstruction and recovery work to move forward.
Summary
A report presented to the UN Security Council says humanitarian conditions in Gaza remain extremely serious, with ongoing shortages of water, medicine, and basic supplies. The report also claims that rebuilding Gaza is being delayed because Hamas has not agreed to disarm or give up control of the territory. International aid pledges have been made, but much of the promised money has not yet reached people on the ground.
