Thousands of Palestinians continue to arrive in Rafah, which is already “a pressure cooker” The humanitarian office has expressed concern about hostilities in Khan Younis that have forced thousands of people to flee to Rafah in southern Gaza, describing the border town as a “pressure cooker of desperation.” Thousands of Palestinians have continued to flee to the south, where more than half of the population of some 2.3 million people already live. «It's like a pressure cooker of desperation, people live outdoors, on the streets, you know? Our vehicles can barely move simply because there are tents everywhere. So what I can say about it is that we fear what will come next. explained Jens Laerke, spokesperson for the United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs. For its part, the World Health Organization said that some 8,000 people must be evacuated from Gaza, 6,000 of them due to war injuries. but less than a sixth (1,243) have managed to reach Egypt through the Rafah crossing to receive hospital care in that or other countries. The children's agency, UNICEF, estimates that 17,000 children in Gaza are alone or have been separated from their families since Israel's military offensive began.
Most children in the Strip will need psychological support. “The mental health of Palestinian children has been severely affected. They present symptoms such as an extremely high level of persistent anxiety or loss of appetite. They can't sleep, they have emotional outbursts or panic every time they hear a bombing,” explained Jonathan Crickx, Unicef head of communications for the occupied Palestinian territories. WFP calls on conflict parties in Sudan America Mobile Number List to allow food delivery to Sudanese on the brink of famine The World Food Program has called on the Sudanese army and the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces (RSF) to allow the delivery of humanitarian aid to the Sudanese people who are in a state of hunger emergency. Nine months after the outbreak of the conflict in the African country in April last year, more than 18 million people are going through a hunger crisis, of which five million need the urgent arrival of food, in the capital, Khartoum, as well as in in the regions of Darfur or Kordofan.
Every one of our trucks must be on the road every day delivering food to the Sudanese people, who are traumatized and overwhelmed after more than nine months of horrific conflict. However, life-saving assistance does not reach those who need it most. , and We are already receiving reports of people dying of hunger. «said Leni Kinzli, spokesperson for the Program. UN experts denounce the detention of women in Afghanistan for violating the Taliban's dress code Women and children displaced by the conflict walk through a village in northern Afghanistan. UN experts have received numerous reports of arrests of dozens of women and girls in Afghanistan for violating the dress code imposed by the Taliban. "Experts call for an end to these detentions and the immediate release of any women or girls who may still be detained." The arrests initially began in western Kabul, but quickly spread to other parts of the city and other provinces and occurred while the women were in shopping malls, schools and street markets. The women and girls were forcibly taken away in police vehicles and accused of wearing an “inappropriate hijab,” and were held incommunicado, claiming they were wearing colorful, tight-fitting clothing against their instructions.
