target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Ä¢¹½ÊÓƵ Human Rights experts<\/a>\u00a0have expressed grave concerns about the use of lethal force by Israeli security forces against mostly unarmed Palestinian protesters and observers during recent demonstrations near the perimeter fence separating Israel from the Gaza Strip, which, according to OCHA have resulted in the death of 40 Palestinians, including 4 children (three of which attended Ä¢¹½ÊÓƵRWA Schools), and the injuring of more than 5000 Palestinians since 30 March. Peaceful and non violent demonstrations and protests must be respected in accordance with international law. Civilians, particularly children, must not be intentionally put in danger or targeted in any way.\u00a0 Ä¢¹½ÊÓƵRWA echoes both the Ä¢¹½ÊÓƵ Secretary General\u2019s call for an independent and transparent investigation into these incidents, with a view to holding accountable those responsible, as well as his appeal to prevent further injuries and loss of life.<\/li>\n<li>On 11 April, the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees in the Near East (Ä¢¹½ÊÓƵRWA) and the United Nations Development Programme (Ä¢¹½ÊÓƵDP) signed the second amendment to the memorandum of understanding for an additional US$ 10 million from the Saudi Fund for Development (SFD) to cover reconstruction of more than 200 non-refugee shelters in addition to other rehabilitation works in the Gaza Strip. This second amendment brings the total SFD contribution to shelter reconstruction to US$ 61.5 million, benefiting approximately 12,930 families. The ceremony was held at Ä¢¹½ÊÓƵRWA Gaza Field Office in presence of H.E. Mofeed Al-Hasayneh, Minister of Public Works and Housing, the Director of Ä¢¹½ÊÓƵRWA Operations in Gaza, Mr. Matthias Schmale, and Ä¢¹½ÊÓƵDP Special Representative of the Administrator Mr. Roberto Valent.\u00a0 Ä¢¹½ÊÓƵRWA will administer the grant and be involved in monitoring of the project, advising on construction based on its vast experience in the Gaza Strip. The project will prioritize female-headed households and will take into consideration family size and current socio-economic status of targeted population. The 51-day hostilities in the summer of 2014 resulted in the destruction of over 18,000 housing units, leaving approximately 100,000 people homeless. According to the\u00a0<a class=\"ext\" href=\"https:\/\/www.ochaopt.org\/content\/22000-people-gaza-strip-still-internally-displaced-2014-hostilities\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA)<\/a>, 22,000 people in the Gaza Strip remain internally displaced nearly four years after the 2014 hostilities.<\/li>\n<li>On 23 April, the Ä¢¹½ÊÓƵRWA Education Programme organized a ceremony under the name \u201cFuture Sports Pioneer\u201d. The event, which took place at Ä¢¹½ÊÓƵRWA\u2019s New Gaza Elementary Boys School and was attended by Ä¢¹½ÊÓƵRWA students and staff, included many sports activities and performances. Sport is considered a high-impact tool in humanitarian, development and peace-building efforts as sports enhances children\u2019s life skills, including teamwork and mutual respect, increases students\u2019 wellbeing and has a positive effect on children\u2019s academic performance. Ä¢¹½ÊÓƵRWA in Gaza works to promote opportunities for physical activity in a constrained environment which offers little space for children, especially girls, to exercise.<\/li>\n<li>For the past decade, the Gaza Strip has suffered from a chronic electricity deficit which continues to undermine already fragile living conditions. Gaza\u2019s supply of electricity from Israel, Egypt and from its sole, partially functioning power plant meets only about 50 per cent of the daily requirements of its two million residents, the vast majority of whom cannot afford the high cost for fuel to complement their electricity supply through generators. As a consequence, Palestinians in Gaza experience up to 20 hours daily power outages which have severely impacted the availability of essential services, particularly health, water and sanitation services, and undermined Gaza\u2019s fragile economy, particularly the manufacturing and agriculture sectors. Supported by donors, the Ä¢¹½ÊÓƵ coordinates the delivery of emergency fuel to run back-up generators to ensure that a minimum level of life-saving health, water and sanitation services are maintained.\u00a0<a class=\"ext\" href=\"https:\/\/www.ochaopt.org\/page\/gaza-strip-electricity-supply\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Daily updates<\/a>\u00a0on the electricity situation in Gaza are provided by OCHA based on information from the Gaza Electricity Distribution Company, the official body in charge of electricity supply in the Gaza Strip.<\/li>\n<li>In April, the Ä¢¹½ÊÓƵRWA Relief and Social Services Programme (RSSP) together with the Gaza Community Mental Health Programme, concluded a two-year training focused on improving professional and effective supervision of social workers. The training included a range of activities, including six training workshops, monthly follow-up supervision sessions as well as meetings during which participants practised their managing and communication skills, exchanged feedback, and developed solutions to proactively address work problems. Through the RSSP, Ä¢¹½ÊÓƵRWA aims to empower Palestine refugees, focusing on the most vulnerable groups, by meeting their social and economic needs through community social interventions. RSSP staff conduct a wide range of activities such as the distribution of food baskets, the regular assessment of refugees\u2019 poverty status and eligibility for services through social workers, in addition to a variety of skills training and capacity building mainly for women, children and youth.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><strong>OPERATIONAL ENVIRONMENT<\/strong><\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>Between 11 and 22 April, Israeli patrol boats opened fire towards Palestinian boats off the coast of the Gaza Strip on 14 occasions, forcing them ashore. No injuries were reported.Between 9 and 22 April, Israeli forces positioned at the border fence and opened fire towards Palestinian areas on 19 occasions. Two injuries were reported.Between 10 and 22 April, civilians, including many youth, continued to participate in a number of protests under the slogan \u201cGreat Return March\u201d near the perimeter fence in different areas of Gaza. Israeli forces responded with gunfire and teargas. According to OCHA since the start of \u201cGreat Return March\u201d on 30 March, 40 Palestinians were killed and more than 5000 injured.\n<p>On 12 April, Israeli Forces conducted two raids and fired three missiles targeting a military training site in Gaza City. No injuries reported.<\/p>\n<p>On 12 April, Israeli Forces fired one missile targeting a group of militants in Gaza City, killing one and injuring another.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><strong>Ä¢¹½ÊÓƵRWA\u2019S RESPONSE<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\" align=\"center\"><strong>Ä¢¹½ÊÓƵRWA STUDENT SUCCESSFUL IN WORLD HEALTH ORGANIZATION DRAWING COMPETITION<\/strong><\/p>\n<div class=\"media media-element-container media-color_box\">\n<p><a class=\"colorbox init-colorbox-processed cboxElement\" title=\"Manar Sami Atot, a 14-year-old Ä¢¹½ÊÓƵRWA student, holding her certificate of merit next to her winning artwork at the final ceremony of the WHO art competition held on 10 April at Rashad Al Shawwa centre, Gaza city. \u00a9 2018 Ä¢¹½ÊÓƵRWA Photo by Khaled Tuaima\" href=\"https:\/\/www.unrwa.org\/sites\/default\/files\/img_1395.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"lazyload media-element file-color-box aligncenter\" title=\"Manar Sami Atot, a 14-year-old Ä¢¹½ÊÓƵRWA student, holding her certificate of merit next to her winning artwork at the final ceremony of the WHO art competition held on 10 April at Rashad Al Shawwa centre, Gaza city. \u00a9 2018 Ä¢¹½ÊÓƵRWA Photo by Khaled Tuaima\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20xmlns%3D%27http%3A%2F%2Fwww.w3.org%2F2000%2Fsvg%27%20width%3D%27750%27%20height%3D%27500%27%20viewBox%3D%270%200%20750%20500%27%3E%3Crect%20width%3D%27750%27%20height%3D%27500%27%20fill-opacity%3D%220%22%2F%3E%3C%2Fsvg%3E\" data-orig-src=\"https:\/\/www.unrwa.org\/sites\/default\/files\/styles\/wysiwyg_colorbox\/public\/img_1395.jpg?itok=FniiNrwL\" alt=\"Manar Sami Atot, a 14-year-old Ä¢¹½ÊÓƵRWA student, holding her certificate of merit next to her winning artwork at the final ceremony of the WHO art competition held on 10 April at Rashad Al Shawwa centre, Gaza city. \u00a9 2018 Ä¢¹½ÊÓƵRWA Photo by Khaled Tuaima\" width=\"750\" height=\"500\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<div class=\"field field-name-field-file-image-alt-text field-type-text field-label-hidden\">\n<div class=\"field-items\">\n<h6 class=\"field-item even\" style=\"text-align: center\"><strong>Manar Sami Atot, a 14-year-old Ä¢¹½ÊÓƵRWA student, holding her certificate of merit next to her winning artwork at the final ceremony of the WHO art competition held<br \/>\non 10 April at Rashad Al Shawwa centre, Gaza city.\u00a0\u00a9 2018 Ä¢¹½ÊÓƵRWA Photo by Khaled Tuaima<\/strong><\/h6>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>Once again, Ä¢¹½ÊÓƵRWA students in Gaza stand out and set an example of dedication and love of life despite the difficult circumstances they live in. On 10 April, Manar Sami Atot, a 14-year-old Ä¢¹½ÊÓƵRWA student at Rafah Preparatory Girls School \u201cD\u201d, won the fourth prize in the regional World Health Organization (WHO) art competition organized to mark World Health Day.<\/p>\n<p>Under the slogan \u201cHealth for All\u201d, Ä¢¹½ÊÓƵRWA preparatory school students from across the Gaza Strip were encouraged to participate in the WHO art competition from 10 January to 4 March. Ä¢¹½ÊÓƵRWA submitted 60 drawings by students from Gaza to the WHO Regional Office in Egypt where a panel of judges selected the winning drawings.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI could not have been happier when WHO called to tell me that I had won the fourth prize at the level of the Middle East and the first prize in Palestine. Through my drawing, I highlighted everyone\u2019s right to health services. Without the health services provided by Ä¢¹½ÊÓƵRWA, Palestine refugees in Gaza would suffer, especially given the financial and economic hardship they face every day,\u201d commented Manar Sami Atot.<\/p>\n<p>On the occasion of World Health Day, Ä¢¹½ÊÓƵRWA conducted eight awareness-raising sessions across the Gaza Strip on the topics of non-communicable diseases as well as dental, post-natal and maternal health. In addition, all Ä¢¹½ÊÓƵRWA schools organized a series of events aimed at encouraging healthy life style habits, hygiene skills and a balanced diet during the month of April.<\/p>\n<p>Throughout the year, school health teams and committees work to raise students\u2019 and parents\u2019 awareness of health issues and refer students to Ä¢¹½ÊÓƵRWA Health Programme teams for comprehensive medical screening. Through 22 health centres, Ä¢¹½ÊÓƵRWA in Gaza provides primary health care services to the majority of Palestine refugees in the Gaza Strip, including clinical and laboratory services, maternal health and family planning advice, as well as monitoring and treatment of communicable diseases such as diarrhea, meningitis and mumps. Approximately one million patients are treated on a quarterly basis.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>FÄ¢¹½ÊÓƵDING NEEDS<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Ä¢¹½ÊÓƵRWA is confronted with an increased demand for services resulting from a growth in the number of registered Palestine refugees, the extent of their vulnerability and their deepening poverty. Ä¢¹½ÊÓƵRWA is funded almost entirely by voluntary contributions and financial support has been outpaced by the growth in needs.<\/p>\n<p>Ä¢¹½ÊÓƵRWA\u2019s emergency programmes and key projects, also operating with large shortfalls, are funded through separate funding portals. Prioritised needs in Gaza in relation to the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.unrwa.org\/sites\/default\/files\/content\/resources\/2018_opt_ea_final_web.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">2018 oPt Emergency Appeal<\/a>\u00a0include US$ 80 million for the distribution of emergency food parcels to almost 1 million people, at least US$ 10 million for creating temporary cash-for-work opportunities through Ä¢¹½ÊÓƵRWA\u2019s Job Creation Programme as well as US$ 7 million for the Agency\u2019s Community Mental Health Programme. Furthermore, following the 2014 conflict, US$ 316 million has been pledged in support of Ä¢¹½ÊÓƵRWA\u2019s emergency shelter programme, for which an estimated US$ 720 million is required. This leaves a current shortfall of US$ 404 million. Ä¢¹½ÊÓƵRWA urgently appeals to donors to generously contribute to its emergency shelter programme to provide displaced Palestine refugees in Gaza with rental subsidies or cash assistance to undertake reconstruction of their demolished homes.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>CROSSINGS<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Longstanding restrictions on the movement of people and goods to and from Gaza have undermined the living conditions of approximately 1.9 million Palestinians in Gaza.\u00a0<a class=\"ext external-processed\" href=\"http:\/\/www.gisha.org\/UserFiles\/File\/publications\/Info_Gaza_Eng.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Israel prevents all access to and from the Gaza Strip by sea and air<\/a>.\u00a0<a class=\"ext external-processed\" href=\"http:\/\/www.ochaopt.org\/content.aspx?id=1010266\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Movement of people and goods in and out of Gaza<\/a>\u00a0is restricted to three crossings: Rafah crossing, Erez crossing and Kerem Shalom crossing.
