UN humanitarian teams sprang into action this week after Gaza's Civil Defense issued urgent distress calls, coordinating rescues in Gaza City's Tufah neighborhood. With temperatures dropping ❄️, agencies are racing to deliver winter supplies like blankets and clothes to families still reeling from two years of conflict.
The World Health Organization (WHO) recently evacuated 72 patients and companions for critical care abroad 🏥, but over 16,500 still need life-saving treatment unavailable locally. 'Every hour counts,' said a UN coordinator, urging open borders for medical teams and supplies.
Meanwhile, OCHA reports growing concerns in the West Bank as Israeli operations displace families 🏚️ and disrupt water access. Nearly two dozen Palestinian households lost homes to military use in just 48 hours.
As 2025 winds down, UN agencies emphasize: 'This isn’t just emergency response—it’s about preventing a generational catastrophe.' With winter storms looming, the clock is ticking ⏳.
