The UN Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs has once again drawn attention to the difficult conditions that the residents of Gaza are facing.
The agency said some 22,000 people have taken shelter in Khan Younis Training, a center of the UN Relief and Works Agency's facilities, leaving just two square meters for each person, while adding that at least 600 people were forced to share a toilet, in the overcrowded UN shelter in southern Gaza, risking the spread of infectious diseases.
The UN office said they are among some 717,000 people sheltering in facilities provided by the agency, out of a total of 1.5 million internally displaced people.
" Another 122,000 people have taken shelter in hospitals, churches and public buildings - but those hospitals are struggling. At least 40% of hospitals with inpatient capacity and 71% of all primary care facilities have stopped functioning in Gaza due to damage or lack of fuel ," OCHA said.
The attacks hit "surroundings" of four hospitals in the territory on Sunday, killing eight people, OCHA said, citing monitoring by the World Health Organization.
