According to Almayadeen, Griffiths warned of the possible collapse of UN humanitarian efforts in the Gaza Strip after aid deliveries became “erratic” and “undependable” given that Israeli occupation attacks resulted in the elimination of any safe spaces in the southern Gaza Strip.
UN aid deliveries and operations, which are on the brink of collapse, have deteriorated to a “program of opportunism,” said Griffiths, who lamented the extreme scarcity of supplies and the failure of the UN to deliver aid to large parts of Gaza.
“It’s erratic, it’s undependable, and frankly, it’s not sustainable,” Griffiths said speaking of UN operation in the Gaza Strip after “Israel” began heavily striking everything, including refugee housing locations.
The Israeli occupation’s genocidal operation in the South “made no place safe for civilians in southern Gaza, which had been a cornerstone of the humanitarian plan to protect civilians and thus to provide aid to them.”
Southern Gaza was left “without places of safety,” and as a result, the UN plan was “in tatters”, Griffiths explained.
“We do not have a humanitarian operation in southern Gaza that can be called by that name anymore,” the UN Under-Secretary-General for Humanitarian Affairs stressed.
On Friday, more than a dozen member states of the World Health Organization submitted a draft resolution, urging “Israel” to abide by its international ‘legal obligations’ to safeguard humanitarian workers in Gaza.
The ongoing Israeli aggression on Gaza has massacred 17,487 people, mostly women and children, according to the Gaza Health Ministry in the besieged Palestinian territory.
