BBC: <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Food distribution in the southern Gaza city of Rafah has been suspended due to a lack of supplies and insecurity, the UN says.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The UN agency for Palestinian refugees, Unrwa, warned its distribution centre and a World Food Programme warehouse were now inaccessible because of the ongoing Israeli military operation against Hamas in eastern Rafah.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
At least 815,000 of the more than a million people taking refuge in Rafah have fled since the Israeli operation began two weeks ago.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Unrwa also said its health centres had not received any medical supplies in the past 10 days.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The news came as the US said it did not believe any of the aid that had entered northern Gaza through a newly-completed floating pier had been distributed to Palestinians by humanitarian organisations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
On Saturday, crowds of Palestinians desperate for food intercepted a number of WFP lorries transporting aid from the pier, which prompted the agency to suspend deliveries until new routes could be identified.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Israel launched a military campaign to destroy Hamas in response to the group’s cross-border attack on southern Israel on 7 October, during which about 1,200 people were killed and 252 others were taken hostage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
More than 35,640 people have been killed in Gaza since then, according to the territory’s Hamas-run health ministry.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
