The president of the Red Cross described the humanitarian situation in Gaza on Friday as "hell on earth" and warned that its field hospital will run out of supplies within two weeks.
"We are now finding ourselves in a situation that I have to describe as hell on earth ...People don't have access to water, electricity, food, in many parts," Mirjana Spoljaric told news agency Reuters at the headquarters of the International Committee of the Red Cross in Geneva.
This comes as hundreds of thousands of Gaza City residents have lost their main source of clean water in the past week after supplies from Israel's water utility were cut by the Israeli army's renewed offensive, municipal authorities in the territory said.
No new humanitarian supplies have entered the Palestinian enclave since Israel blocked the entry of aid trucks on March 2, as talks stalled on the next stage of a now broken truce.
Israel resumed its military assault on March 18, killing over 1,300 people since.
At least 20 people have been killed in Gaza since Friday morning, according to the territory’s Health Ministry.
It reports 50,912 confirmed deaths and over 115,000 wounded since the war began. The Government Media Office estimates the actual death toll exceeds 61,700, with thousands still missing under the rubble.
