Gaza in a state of devastation as half of her population have been displaced in the past month following Israel’s expanded military operations in Rafah, the Norwegian Refugee Council outlined in a report on Thursday.

The report stated that it is becoming increasingly difficult for displaced people in Gaza to relocate, facing issues such as clogged streets, overcrowding, fuel shortages, and a sixfold surge in transport costs. It also warned of a rise in Hepatitis A cases, with the accumulation of solid waste becoming a “critical problem.”
The NRC’s head of operations in Gaza who recently left Gaza, Suze van Meegen said the humanitarian crisis in Gaza is becoming “dangerously normalised.”
“It is not normal for a whole population to live in constant fear and with overwhelming grief. It is not normal to feel your safety is at greater risk in a school or hospital than elsewhere. It is not normal for a community to bury hundreds of people each week,” van Meegen urged.
The aid official said the capacity for humanitarian organizations to deliver “even the paltriest assistance is now completely diminished.”
