According to the office, at least 200,000 tents are needed to meet the needs of the population, but current supplies do not even reach half of this amount. Additionally, only 15 mobile homes have been delivered to Gaza, while at least 60,000 are required to house families left without shelter.

Beyond the lack of shelters, the region is experiencing an acute shortage of generators, batteries, solar panels, and construction equipment. Representatives of the media office stated that Gaza needs 500 units of heavy machinery for rescue and reconstruction efforts. However, as part of the initial phase of the agreement, only 9 bulldozers have arrived.

Meanwhile, Israeli authorities blocked humanitarian aid deliveries to Gaza on Sunday morning, just hours after the first phase of the ceasefire ended. The suspension of aid exacerbates the suffering of civilians, who are already struggling with severe shortages of food, water, and medical supplies.

Israeli airstrikes on Gaza have killed more than 48,380 people, the majority of whom are women and children. The International Criminal Court previously issued arrest warrants for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and former Defense Minister Yoav Gallant on charges of war crimes and crimes against humanity.

Furthermore, Israel is set to face the International Court of Justice over allegations of genocide in Gaza.
