Philippe Lazzarini, head of the United Nations agency for Palestinian refugees, UNRWA, said on Sunday evening that more than 75,000 people have been displaced in southwest Gaza in the past few days.

In a post on X, he said that people in Gaza are trapped and have nowhere to go.

“Some are only able to carry their children with them, some carry their whole lives in one small bag,” he added.

Lazzarini also said, “They are going to overcrowded places where shelters are already overflowing with families. They have lost everything and need everything. Unlike in other wars, the people of Gaza are trapped and have nowhere to go.”
