Unrwa chief: Nothing changed after Israeli 'tactical pauses,' hostilities continue 

Nothing has changed on the ground after the Israeli military announced "tactical pauses" along a road in Rafah, as hostilities continue across the Gaza Strip, Unrwa chief Philippe Lazzarini said on Monday. 

Speaking from Oslo, Lazzarini added that Unrwa, the UN agency for Palestinian refugees, has funding until July but the future beyond that was unknown. 

He also warned that a "silent war" was taking placed in the occupied West Bank. 

The Israeli military announced a "tactical pause" on Sunday along a key road in Rafah to facilitate aid delivery, but later backtracked and said operations there would not stop after coming under pressure from the government.
