Unrwa says food distribution suspended in Rafah

The UN agency for Palestinian refugees (UNRWA) said on Tuesday that, due to lack of supplies and insecurity, food distribution in the southern Gaza city of Rafah has been suspended.

In a post on X (formerly Twitter), the agency added that only 7 out of 24 Unrwa health centres were operational.

"In the last ten days they have not received any medical supplies due to Rafah and Kerem Shalom crossing closures/disruptions," said the agency.
