The UN and other humanitarian agencies have been unable to deliver aid north of Wadi Gaza for three days, the UN Humanitarian Agency (OCHA) has said.
Around half of Gaza lies north of Wadi Gaza, including Gaza City.
OCHA said aid could not be delivered due to “access delays and denials, as well as active conflict”, but did not specify who was responsible.
Areas north of Wadi Gaza have “been severed from the south for more than a month”, OCHA added, with people there facing “catastrophic and life-threatening food insecurity”.
The UN said the aid that was blocked from entering included medicines for “more than 100,000 people for 30 days” and eight food trucks.
Extremely little humanitarian assistance has been reaching the north of Gaza, with limited aid trucks only entering the besieged enclave through the southern border.
