1. Key points
The Gaza Strip
- A humanitarian pause entered into force in the morning of 24 November and was maintained for the third consecutive day on 26 November.
- On 26 November, aid convoys reached areas north of Wadi Gaza. UN agencies and the Palestine Red Crescent Society (PRCS) distributed 1,062 metric tonnes of ready-to-eat food to four UNRWA shelters in Jabalia camp, 185 metric tonnes of tents and blankets and 890 metric tonnes of bottled water to various sites.
- Over the past three days, small amounts of cooking gas have entered Gaza for the first time since the start of the conflict. However, the amounts fall well short of the needs.
- Around 1.8 million people (or over 80 per cent of the population) have been displaced across the Gaza Strip since 7 October.
- As of 24 November, almost 1.1 million internally displaced persons (IDPs) were sheltering in 156 UNRWA installations across all five governorates of the Gaza Strip, including in the north.
