➤ Ongoing attacks despite ceasefire:

The UN says attacks in the past 24 hours have resulted in casualties and disruptions to humanitarian operations. A rescue mission to reach an injured person in Gaza City was denied yesterday.

➤ Shelter crisis worsening in winter conditions:

With a severe lack of shelter, families are staying in partially or heavily damaged buildings to survive the cold and rain. Over the weekend, multiple buildings collapsed during storms, causing casualties, according to humanitarian partners.

➤ Women-headed households hit hardest:

The Gender in Humanitarian Action Working Group reports that 75% of women-headed households urgently need shelter support, and two-thirds urgently need clothing.

➤ Scale of need vs limited relief:

An estimated 1.3 million people need shelter assistance across Gaza. In the past week, only 3,500 families affected by storms or flooding received tents, bedding, mattresses, and blankets.

More than 250,000 children received winter clothing, while 630,000 adolescents remain without winter clothing assistance.

➤ Aid restrictions remain the core obstacle:

The UN again calls for the lifting of all restrictions on aid entry, including shelter materials, warning that current constraints are blocking life-saving assistance.

➤ Access denied in half of missions:

OCHA reports that only half of planned humanitarian missions inside Gaza were facilitated by Israeli authorities yesterday.
