The Jabalia refugee camp in northern Gaza has seen heavy fighting as Israeli tanks surround the area
The Hamas-run local authority said about 100,000 people are still in the camp without a functioning hospital and at risk of starvation
No aid has reached the north since the humanitarian truce ended at the start of December
Yesterday, UN chief Antonio Guterres warned that the humanitarian system in Gaza may collapse and public order could completely break down
He says he expects public order to completely break down because of continuing Israeli bombardment and lack of essential supplies
His comments have been criticised by Israel Foreign Minister Eli Cohen, who called Guterres’ tenure a “danger to world peace”
Israel agrees to allow a “minimal” amount of additional fuel into Gaza to prevent humanitarian collapse and the outbreak of epidemics
Legislation to provide new security assistance for Israel has been blocked by Republican members of the US Senate
