UN has warned that Gaza has become “uninhabitable”

The UN has warned that Gaza has become “uninhabitable” after three months of fighting where more than 22,600 Palestinians have been killed and almost 58,000 wounded.

Civilians continue to bear the brunt of the conflict, with the UN warning of a deepening humanitarian crisis as famine looms and disease spreads.

With much of the territory already reduced to rubble, UN humanitarian chief Martin Griffiths said Friday that “Gaza has simply become uninhabitable”.

 Israel bombed Gaza on Saturday as the United Nations warned the Palestinian territory has become “uninhabitable” after three months of fighting that threatens to engulf the wider region.
