Storyline: Displaced Palestinians say they are still struggling to survive amid a severe shortage of essential supplies in the Gaza Strip one month after a ceasefire was agreed between Israel and Hamas, as humanitarian agencies warn that vital food aid is still failing to get through. Despite significant progress in scaling up aid since the Gaza ceasefire took effect on Oct 10, delays in lifting impediments mean urgent needs are still unmet, according to the the United Nations. The UN Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA) said on Friday that aid entry remains restricted to only two crossing points, with no direct access from Israel to northern Gaza or from Egypt to southern Gaza, adding that certain items and staff from non-governmental organizations are not allowed in. The World Food Programme said on Tuesday that only half of the required amount of food aid is actually entering Gaza, with this limited level of aid falling far below the minimum humanitarian threshold, according to Gaza media office. This harsh reality is being sorely felt by local Gazans on the ground, who say the long-awaited ceasefire has failed to bring about any real improvement in their plight following more than two brutal years of conflict. "Nothing has changed for us. Despite the announcement about aid trucks entering, nothing has reached us. You can ask anyone here in the camp, we only received a pack of bread three times before," said Riyad Al-Hout, a displaced Palestinian in the Maghazi refugee camp. UN partners working on providing support at shelter sites say that most displaced people in Gaza remain in overcrowded makeshift camps, many of which were established spontaneously in open or unsafe areas. Many Palestinians said they can not return to their homes due to the dangers posed by the so-called "yellow zone", a demarcation marking areas where Israeli forces remain deployed "without any limitations." "I feel like the war situation hasn't ended; it's still the same. We haven’t been able to return to our homes yet because they're in the so-called 'yellow zone', where entry is not permitted. As you can see, people here live in worn-out tents on this barren land, it feels like sleeping out in the open. Even my Mom and I have no tent. One of my sons was killed, and two others were injured. That’s our situation," said Alaa Al-Naeizi, a displaced Palestinian. Local authorities said only 4,000 truckloads of aid have entered the Gaza Strip over the past month, while the actual need according to the agreement is for 600 truckloads of aid per day. "They said the war is over, but it's still going on. Our homes are in the 'yellow zone', and we’re not allowed to return. Looks like this 'yellow zone' will be forever unchanged," said Faiza Oweis, another displaced Palestinian. Shotlist: Maghazi, Gaza Strip - Recent: 1. Various of tents, displaced people 2.
