GENEVA — Israel is still imposing "unlawful" restrictions on humanitarian relief for Gaza , the UN Human Rights Office said on Tuesday, despite assertions from Israel and others that barriers have eased. Israel 's offensive in the Gaza Strip triggered by Hamas' deadly cross-border attacks on Oct. 7 has turned much of the Gaza strip into a wasteland, with hundreds of thousands of people now displaced and crowded into disease-ridden shelters.
Israel, which denies hindering humanitarian relief to Gaza, has faced increased international pressure to let more supplies into the Gaza Strip since it hit an aid convoy on April 1, killing international relief workers."Those delivering or trying to access humanitarian assistance must never be attacked," added Shamdasani.More than 33,000 people have been killed in Gaza since Oct. 7, according to Palestinian health authorities and over 76,000 injured.
