'Bleak reality' in Rafah: Gazans flee in 'absolute fear & terror' amid strikes from air, land & sea

The United States aims to have a floating pier in place off the Gaza Strip coast in the coming days to boost aid deliveries, but Washington is facing the same challenges that have beset the United Nations and relief groups for months when it comes to distributing assistance to the war-torn enclave. For more analysis and a deeper perspective on the harrowing plight of civilians of war-torn Gaza and humanitarian workers, FRANCE 24's Nadia Massih is joined by Louise Wateridge, spokesperson for UNRWA.

UNRWA now there is an organization we all look up to

[@KevinDavis-op3qp]

Lol uvare totally confused supporting terrorists

[@gw6887]

Where are the hostages Unrwa ?

[@Scorpion.1001]

Talking about hostages after killing 15000 children While most of the hostages were released through hostage exchange deals with Palestinian prisoners, who are also hostages, there are people who rely on deceit and denial to avoid facing the truth.

[@uromvictor]

@@Scorpion.1001 copying and pasting the same comments wont make it real. The hostages could have been released last year to avoid all of this... Better still not attack Israel to start with.

[@Stevemcqueen808]

So tired they cant even dance? Odd. Maybe actions have consequences 🤔

[@kekomosa]

Can’t get aid when Hamas is shooting at the border crossings why don’t you talk to them about it

[@noorahmed5649]

Give me your address ,i will update you personally ...

[@adz951]

Pure lies

[@uromvictor]

Help us ask them...

[@rananjaysingh959]

Not a single time UNRWA has appealed for release of hostages and there could have been peace. It appears that conflict will last long despite noise about civilian casualties. Gazans should have figured out the consequences of 10/7.

[@adz951]

Completely untrue. UNRWA have called for the relationship of the hostages multiple times. A simple google search will reveal such

[@RangerXXT]

yes israel just released video of hamas operating out of their facilities again

[@stevemarler7039]

I hope it's not another mistake like the world kitchen one😮 looks photo shopped 😮

[@Sandel99456]

​@stevemarler7039 it was discredited ..nothing the idf claims stand to scrutiny

[@uromvictor]

@@Sandel99456 It wasn't discredited... Those are terrorist working from the UN compound.

[@bigdaddyrat7854]

If the UN could create a coalition to evict Saddam Hussein from Kuwait, why can't it create one to throw Israel out of Gaza?

[@stephenball-qo7ug]

Nobody wants to create a coalition.

[@wamnicho]

Saddam didn’t have a lobby in Washington 😂

[@user-pe5qy1zw6y]

@bigdaddyrat7854 Kuwait didn’t need UN coalition to throw out 400,000+ so-called ‘Paliestones’ (@robs) and massacred many of them. Jordan massacred 25,000+ of them and expelled many to Lebanon and Syria during Black September.

[@user-pe5qy1zw6y]

I feel bad for the animals: dogs, cats, horses….

[@Scorpion.1001]

Aipac

[@horstrobertwalter949]

Why not deliver all the food by air?

[@ryuuguu01]

Not really possible, a little can delivered but enough to feed 2.5M people. Israel has a duty to allow aid into occupied areas under the Geneva Convention.

[@Alice-dr9er]

They do. Do you see people actually with signs of starvations in any of these videos?

[@Scorpion.1001]

​@@Alice-dr9erThere are two million Palestinians. How many airplanes will Israel allow in? And yes, there is a famine when Israel closes all the crossings. They want famine and fear of famine.

[@kirkwootton1887]

USA is trying to kill the Gazans with food bombs!

[@dlitepix3752]

The internet is full of daft people

[@VoiceSriLanka]

It’s not masavi darling it’s Al Muasi

[@antonioginopaolo]

Tell Hamas to surrender

[@KevinDavis-op3qp]

Did she talk to sinwar or did they use her vehicke shame on her

[@user-pe5qy1zw6y]

ARE THE HOSTAGES GETTING AID? MEDICAL AID?

[@lindahaltam6535]

Probably depends on their location and the keepers resources. But the IDF targets anyone they think could ever possibly work with Hamas. Last released hostages said they are the same as their keepers, but some were very limited.

[@uromvictor]

@@lindahaltam6535 why would you keep the hostages if you want peace...

[@josepholalekan4573]

Hamas is the cause of their suffering blame Hamas not Israel

[@sardendibs]

The language of the abuser: Look what you made us do.

[@uromvictor]

@@sardendibs Language of accountability.

[@zikusookasophiewamono4784]

Hamas's to blame. If they cared for the Palestinians they would free the hostages, and surrender.

[@eben-OA]

Yes

[@kennethdonkor2006]

Exactly 💯

[@bigdaddyrat7854]

The occupier has no rights. Palestinians have every right to defend themselves in their own land by any means possible.

[@junqian5964]

@@bigdaddyrat7854so you say they are happier then a year ago

[@Stevemcqueen808]

​@@bigdaddyrat7854ya lost, get over it. 4 generations of 'refugees' is ridiculous. The world is tired of paying for a death cult. Time to move forward or move to the Sinai.
