Four?months since?the Gaza ceasefire agreement came into effect,?the humanitarian scale-up has saved countless lives and pushed?back famine, OCHA said today.

However, many survivors remain in extremely harsh conditions and the humanitarian response face significant obstacles, especially to the entry of goods and the ability of humanitarian partners to operate.

Almost 1.5 million people – two in every three Palestinians in Gaza – are staying in 1,000 displacement sites that are often overcrowded, and in tents that offer no privacy and little protection from the weather. Hundreds of families take shelter in damaged buildings at risk of collapse.

Humanitarian partners continue to provide tents and tarpaulins as well as mattresses, clothes and other items, reaching more than 85,000 families in January. But these items offer limited protection and their lifespan is short. To provide more?durable?solutions, restrictions on the entry of essential construction materials and equipment must be lifted.

This week, partners working on water, sanitation and hygiene distributed about 20,000 cubic metres of drinking water every day through more than 2,000 distribution points across the Strip.

Meanwhile, humanitarian movements inside Gaza continue to require coordination with Israeli authorities, especially where Israeli forces remain deployed.

Today, the UN attempted to coordinate eight humanitarian missions, five of which were fully facilitated. The three other missions -including one to reach a wastewater treatment plant in Khan Younis – were denied.

The facilitated missions collected food and medical supplies from Kerem Shalom and monitored humanitarian cargo at the Kissufim and Kerem Shalom crossing platforms.
