"The intensive air raids raised the number of Palestinians killed since the start of this aggression to exceed 7,000 people, while 104 Palestinians were killed in the West Bank.

12 trucks of aid entered Gaza from the Rafah border crossing, containing food, medicine, and medical supplies, according to the Palestinian Red Crescent Society. Only 74 trucks have been allowed into Gaza since Oct. 7, but with no fuel."

STANDUP 3 (English): YANG YIRAN, Xinhua correspondent in Cairo
"UN High Commissioner for Refugees Filippo Grandi is urgently requesting essential resources, including fuel, for the UN Agency for Palestine Refugees. UN warned that the agency may be forced to halt its operations if it doesn't receive access to fuel.

The United Nations Economic and Social Commission for Western Asia (ESCWA) said in a press release that about 96 percent of Gazans have been plunged into poverty due to the ongoing conflict.

Following the UN's failure to adopt two draft resolutions regarding Israel and Palestine, foreign ministers of nine Arab countries, urged the UN Security Council to oblige the warring parties to an immediate and sustainable cease-fire.
