UN warns of deteriorating Gaza humanitarian situation
2013-11-22
[Al Ahram] The humanitarian situation in Gaza has deteriorated one year after a truce that ended fighting between Israel and the Hamas rulers of the Palestinian enclave, UN officials said Thursday.
Running out of food before they run out of ammunition? It happens.
"After 12 months the initial hopes for a significant improvement on the ground have not been realised," said James Rawley, the United Nations' humanitarian coordinator for the Palestinian territories.

"In fact I am sorry to report that situations for Gaza's 1.7 million people is worse than it was before the hostilities a year ago" between November 14 and 21, he said.

#5  I understand Russia has entire swaths of eastern Siberia available. Perhaps it's time for Mr. Putin to give another display of his magnanimity.
