OCHA reports that the Ä¢¹½ÊÓƵ and humanitarian partners continue to respond to both ongoing and emerging needs across the\u00a0Gaza Strip, while urging a more enabling operational environment and increased funding to reach the most vulnerable.<\/p>\n
Partners\u00a0note\u00a0that\u00a0shortages\u00a0in fuel,\u00a0engine\u00a0oil and spare parts\u00a0continue to undermine critical water and sanitation operations, including water production and distribution, as well as solid waste management. Through prioritized fuel allocations, life-saving activities, such as water production, treatment and trucking, have continued but at a reduced scale.<\/p>\n
Meanwhile, partners are advancing the pest management plan. The Ä¢¹½ÊÓƵ Development Programme is leading pesticide application efforts, while Ä¢¹½ÊÓƵICEF and the Ä¢¹½ÊÓƵ Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees are supporting community mobilisation and awareness on safety measures.<\/p>\n
On food security, partners report that in the first two weeks of June, nearly 420,000 people received assistance, including two food parcels, high-energy biscuits and one bag of flour per family. This covers approximately 75 per cent of minimum daily caloric needs.<\/p>\n
In support of livelihoods, between 1 and 9 June,\u00a0partners distributed animal feed to\u00a0around 2,200 herders, with each household receiving one 50-kilogram bag of concentrated fodder and one bag of barley.<\/p>\n
In addition, since late March, partners have provided conditional cash\u00a0assistance\u00a0of\u00a0US$2,500 per farmer to more than 1,000 farmers, supporting the reactivation of local crop production across the Gaza Strip.<\/p>\n
OCHA reiterates that sustained humanitarian access, adequate fuel supplies, and increased funding remain critical to\u00a0maintain\u00a0and scale up these life-saving interventions.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
