“All of these supplies around me are literally three hours from Gaza. They could be there this afternoon,” UNRWA @UNWateridge said to @UNGeneva.
Lifesaving aid remains out of reach while conditions in #Gaza continue to deteriorate. Immediate, unimpeded humanitarian access is…
“We need this aid to enter now.
It has to go to people who are desperate.”
In this video, our colleague @UNWateridge speaks from a @UNRWA warehouse in Amman, Jordan, where supplies have been held up due to the 11 week long siege.
This must stop.
"We really are just lost for words at this point. The suffering is intolerable." UNRWA @UNWateridge tells @CNN.
After months of war, siege and displacement, the humanitarian crisis in #Gaza has reached an unimaginable scale. Families are starving, people are living with deep…
“It’s a complete and utter horror show and it doesn’t end,” @UNWateridge tells @BBCNews.
People in #Gaza are going through unimaginable suffering: children killed and people starving after 11 weeks of blockade with no aid allowed in. Fully stocked warehouses are just hours away.…
.@UNRWA's @UNWateridge describes the devastating toll of the war in Gaza, especially on women & children.
"It has been horrific for 15 months."
The UN is scaling up its humanitarian response, but greater global support is needed to alleviate the immense suffering.
This is what “returning home” looks like in #Gaza
Home is what everyone has been dreaming of, the memory has pushed families to survive over the last 15 months.
Many now return to decimation: shattered lives, broken families & futures left in ruins. A new and unrelenting hell.
The need for immediate lifesaving aid & long-term support in Gaza is critical.
Following the ceasefire, our @UNRWA colleagues are working tirelessly to deliver vital supplies to people in desperate need.
Now more than ever, families in Gaza are looking to UNRWA for support.
Rafah, southern #Gaza today.
With relief comes a heaviness from the weight of overwhelming devastation.
Families here looking for homes that are no more, looking for loved ones still under the rubble. Families of hostages desperately awaiting news.
The loss is immeasurable.
“In every direction you look in the Gaza Strip there’s destruction.
It looks like a graveyard.”
@UNRWA 's @UNWateridge describes the unbearable reality in Gaza, stressing that if the bombing stops, people will have nothing to go back to & it will be hard to rebuild their lives.
In #Gaza, amid bombing and undignified living, people are in absolute despair.
“It’s like a fish bowl, and you’re just having to dodge being killed” says our @UNWateridge to The Guardian.
Banning UNRWA operations would only make it worse.

"I've had a woman scream at me in absolute despair and horror because her son was killed in the strike in the so-called humanitarian zone. Her daughter was lying on the bed next to us, paralyzed".
Our @UNWateridge describes the devastating conditions in a hospital in #Gaza to…
"Children are freezing to death because they don't have enough shelter items," says Louise Wateridge, a Senior Emergency Officer at UNRWA who has just returned from Gaza.
"An entire society is now a graveyard, yet nobody has had the luxury to mourn because they have to survive."
As 2024 comes to an end, @UNRWA's @UNWateridge reflects on the catastrophic impact the war in Gaza has had on millions this year.
news.un.org/en/story/2024/…
The war in #Gaza has continued for over 14 months.
"It's not okay that this inaction continues. It needs to stop. There has to be a ceasefire. It's the only hope now" tells @UNWateridge to @MSNBC.
#CeasefireNow
Children in #Gaza killed in every way possible:
killed by strikes
killed buried under rubble
killed by disease & malnutrition
killed by hospitals being bombed
killed by incubators shutting off without electricity
and now, killed because of cold & lack of shelter.

Since the beginning of the war in Gaza, my colleague @UNWateridge's extraordinary work reporting from the field has truly demonstrated why the @UN, especially @UNRWA, matters now more than ever.

Families have been torn apart and lives consumed by war. "Is the world still looking?"
