"What's happening in northern Gaza is terrifying beyond words," Joyce Msuya, the acting chief of the UN's Humanitarian Affairs and Emergency Relief Agency, said.
"Attacks by Israeli forces are intensifying. Hospitals are forced to evacuate their patients. Essential supplies running out. People forcibly displaced, cut off from aid, left to starve," Msuya wrote on X.
Her comments come as Israeli strikes killed dozens on Sunday across Gaza, including five children and scores sheltering at a school.
Israel has isolated the northern half of the enclave and is weighing a plan to starve Palestinians there, the Associated Press reported.
