On May 29, the UN reported that aid deliveries to Gaza had decreased by 67 percent since the closure of the Rafah border crossing on May 7.

"Our colleagues in the Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA) tell us that widespread Israeli bombardments continue to be reported. Ground incursions and heavy fighting are also affecting northern, central and southern Gaza," UN spokesperson Stephane Dujarric told reporters at a news conference.

"The flow of humanitarian aid into Gaza has dropped by 67 percent since the 7th of May," Dujarric said, attributing this primarily to the closure of the Rafah border crossing.

Dujarric also stated that health and service facilities are shutting down one by one, with displacement from the attacks further impacting resource distribution.

The World Central Kitchen, a non-profit organisation that has been providing meals to Palestinians in besieged Gaza, is one of the organisations in Rafah, in the southernmost part of the Palestinian enclave, that has ceased operations.

"In the face of Israeli operations in Rafah, countless families are being forced to flee once again. Ongoing attacks have forced us to pause work at our main kitchen in Rafah…," the charity said on social media platform X on May 28.

The charity recently resumed its work in Gaza after suspending operations in April following the killing of seven of its workers in three Israeli air strikes.

Nine countries have paused funding for the UN relief agency for Palestinians (UNRWA) following Israeli allegations that some of its staff were involved in Hamas’s October 7 attacks.

The US, Britain, Germany, Japan, Australia, Canada, Italy, the Netherlands, Switzerland and Finland have halted funding to the aid agency, a critical source of humanitarian support for over a million displaced people in Palestine’s besieged Gaza suffering from a lack of food, water, medicine and adequate shelter due to Israel’s relentless strikes and ongoing blockade.

UNRWA addressed the allegations by stating that it had fired several employees over the accusations, promising a thorough investigation into Israel’s claims.
The Palestinian Foreign Ministry denounced the decision of the key donor countries, calling it a “collective punishment” of the Palestinian people that revealed “miserable double standards”.

Encouraging more donor suspensions, Israeli Foreign Minister Israel Katz said UNRWA should be replaced once fighting in the enclave dies down and accused it of having ties with the Palestinian resistance group Hamas in Gaza.

Amid Israel’s ongoing war on Gaza, UNRWA has played a key role in providing aid and shelter to displaced Palestinians through its 700 schools across the enclave.
UNRWA was initially set up to help refugees of the 1948 Nakba, when over 700,000 Palestinians were violently expelled from their homes during the founding of the State of Israel, and now employs tens of thousands of people, providing education, health and aid services to Palestinians in Gaza, the occupied West Bank, Jordan, Syria and Lebanon.

So let’s prepare ourselves by doing righteous deeds in Rajab, and pay extra attention to making them perfect in Sha‘baan, so that he will be able to do them in a perfect manner in Ramadan.

The scholars refer to this idea in several ways, including the following:

it was said that Rajab is for a person to stop drifting away, Sha‘baan is for striving and sincerity, and Ramadan is for truthfulness and purity.

Rajab is the month of repentance, Sha‘baan is the month of love, and Ramadan is the month of closeness to Allah.

Rajab is the month of sanctity, Sha‘baan is the month of service, and Ramadan is the month of blessing.

Rajab is the month of worship, Sha‘baan is the month of turning away from this world, and Ramadan is the month of increase.

Rajab is the month in which Allah multiplies the reward of good deeds, Sha‘baan is the month of expiating bad deeds, and Ramadan is the month of waiting for gifts and honours.

Rajab is the month of those who are excelling, Sha‘baan is the month of those whose progress is moderate, and Ramadan is the month of the sinners [in which they can mend their ways].

Allahumma balighna Ramadan!

"Children in Gaza are caught in a nightmare that worsens with every passing day," UNICEF executive director Catherine Russell said on January 5, warning that more than 1.1 million children are threatened by intensifying conflict, malnutrition and disease in Palestine’s Gaza.

Children and families in Gaza continue to be killed and injured in the fighting, and their lives are increasingly at risk from preventable diseases and lack of food and water, she highlighted, adding that all children and civilians must be protected from violence and have access to basic services and supplies.

Cases of diarrhoea in children have increased by 50% in just one week, with 90% of children under two subject to "severe food poverty."

"The futures of thousands more children in Gaza hang in the balance. The world cannot stand by and watch. The violence and the suffering of children must stop," she said.

UNICEF is calling for an immediate humanitarian ceasefire to help save civilian lives and alleviate suffering, Russell said, adding that "UNICEF works to provide the life-saving aid the children of Gaza so desperately need. But we urgently need better and safer access to save children’s lives."

Israel's war on besieged Gaza has killed at least 22,600 Palestinians and has wounded more than 57,910 others, according to Gaza’s health authorities.

As we approach the 80-day mark, this summary outlines Israel genocidal war crimes on Gaza, including continuous airstrikes, artillery bombardments, and ground operations:

A group of doctors organised a silent march in several cities across Türkiye to protest Israel’s deadly offensive on Palestinians in Gaza in solidarity with the Palestinian health workers in the blockaded enclave.

Doctors wearing white aprons with red handprints carried signs expressing solidarity with Palestine and condemning Israel’s attacks on hospitals and civilians. The protests have been held for the third time in Istanbul, Ankara, Izmir, Bursa and other cities across Türkiye.

“Physicians and health workers in Gaza’s hospitals are fighting a monumental struggle to provide treatment in dire conditions without electricity, medicine and oxygen,” said Mehmet Muhsin Kefçi, a physician and spokesperson for the group in Istanbul.

“Israel’s attacks on physicians, health workers and patients are a clear war crime.”

Kefci said that they would expand the silent march every week until the Israeli attacks stopped. He called on all his colleagues to boycott pharmaceutical companies that openly support the persecution of Palestinians in Gaza.

Since the start of the offensive, Israeli attacks have killed 280 medical staff, while a further 31 others, including Director of the Al Shifa Hospital Mohammad Abu Salmiya, have been detained by Israeli forces, according to Gaza’s government media office.

Around 130 health centres have been targeted, while 20 hospitals and 46 medical centres have been put out of service.
