"Desperate Palestinians in Gaza face mounting challenges amid ongoing conflict"

International aid groups are facing enormous challenges in delivering critical aid to the population in Gaza, which is caught in a war zone. The war has shut down all but one entry point into Gaza, making it difficult to get enough aid into the area. Additionally, the overwhelming number of displaced people and the lack of humanitarian space exacerbate the situation. Aid workers on the ground are also in constant physical danger, with incidents of direct Israeli fire on humanitarian organizations.
