My interview from Bamako with @AJEnglish on Gaza 👇
OCHA OPT (Palestine) retweeted
No more delays. No more excuses. We must open all the crossings, mobilize the whole humanitarian community, and get our full Winter plan delivered for Gaza.
OCHA OPT (Palestine) retweeted
What’s happening in Gaza now is a preventable, predictable winter crisis.
We have been setting out the plan for months on what we need. Tents. Fuel.
My comments from Mali.
Humanitarians are working hard to support Palestinians affected by heavy rains in #Gaza. "We have run out of time," warns Humanitarian Coordinator Dr. @RamizAlakbarov. "If supplies don't enter this week, we will miss the window of preparing for the winter." Watch.

Heavy rain has flooded shelters across Gaza, leaving families in another crisis.
Tents are ready outside Gaza, but Israeli restrictions are still limiting their entry.
Those restrictions must be lifted so essential shelter supplies and equipment can reach people now.
Over the weekend, rains flooded shelters and damaged buildings across #Gaza. People were killed. Over 150k tents are ready to go into Gaza. Israeli approvals and humanitarian funding are needed urgently. We need heavy machinery and engine oil. Full report: ochaopt.org/content/humanita…

In #Hebron, West Bank, thousands of Palestinians were displaced during a nine-day operation by Israeli forces following a deadly Palestinian attack.
Humanitarians supported local authorities responding to urgent needs. Violence, evictions and collective punishment must end.
Rains have now begun in #Gaza, flooding shelters and putting people at immediate risk. Humanitarians have mobilized quickly, but available stocks are insufficient. Winter supplies must be allowed to enter now. More humanitarian funding is urgent.
Across #Gaza and the #WestBank, humanitarian organizations are supporting displaced people and those who have remained or returned home, replacing belongings damaged by violence or heavy rains and helping families further protect themselves. Read more: ochaopt.org/content/humanita…

Ongoing attacks. Buildings at risk of collapse. Unsafe shelters infested with rats and insects.
People in #Gaza deserve to live in safety and dignity.
With winter approaching, more funding and the lifting of Israeli import restrictions on critical supplies are urgently needed.
OCHA OPT (Palestine) retweeted
In #Gaza, the UN and partners are helping families prepare for the cold and rainy season.
In the last week of October, more than 13,000 families received shelter and related items, including tents, plastic sheets, tarpaulins and blankets.

We visited #Hebron #WestBank as Israeli forces concluded a nine-day operation that displaced thousands of #Palestinians following a deadly Palestinian attack. Local authorities helped residents with our support. Violence, evictions and collective punishment must end.
In #Gaza, #Hebron and across the #WestBank, humanitarians are supporting newly displaced #Palestinians and those in prolonged displacement. Underfunding and persistent restrictions are holding back efforts, incl. preparations for heavy rains. Full report: ochaopt.org/content/humanita…
OCHA OPT (Palestine) retweeted
Settler violence in the West Bank has reached its highest level on record.
Since the start of 2026, more than 2,000 attacks against Palestinians have caused casualties or property damage.
Hear from Humanitarian Coordinator @RamizAlakbarov.
The olive harvest continues amid intense violence across the #WestBank and #Gaza, including attacks on health care. Funding shortfalls are limiting preparations for the cold and rainy season, placing critical services at risk of shutdown. Full report: ochaopt.org/content/humanita…

Important messages from @WFPChief. 👇
Today, Humanitarian Coordinator @RamizAlakbarov took diplomats to Jenin, #WestBank. Amid a particularly violent olive harvest season, they spoke with Palestinians affected by settler attacks and Israeli restrictions. He called for dignified access, protection and accountability.

Displaced by settler violence, a family of six is starting again in a prefab house provided through humanitarian support .
They are among more than 6,500 #WestBank Palestinians displaced by settlers since 2023.
Their old home remains inaccessible. 🔊 Hear from them.
Today in Khan Younis #Gaza, we visited low-lying displacement sites at risk of being flooded when heavy rains begin. We're helping some relocate voluntarily and securing proper drainage for those staying. But to respond at scale, more funding and fewer restrictions are critical.

Impossible choices ahead on who gets food in Gaza. More from @WFPChief 👇
There is no right answer to whose food assistance gets cut when nearly an entire population depends on it.
I spoke to @BBCWorld about the impossible choices being made in Gaza and the international support needed now.
