Israel prevents UNRWA's head to enter Gaza

EPA-EFE/SALVATORE DI NOLFI

The Israeli government denied the entry of United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees (UNRWA) Commissioner-General Philippe Lazzarini (pictured) to the Gaza Strip because his request "was not submitted by the necessary coordination processes and channels," Israel's Coordination of Government Activities in the Territories (COGAT) stated on Monday.

"On the day new data is out on famine in Gaza, the Israeli Authorities deny my entry to Gaza," Lazzarini posted on X.

Earlier, he said during a press conference in Cairo that the hunger in Gaza is "man-made." COGAT added that this was another attempt of the organization to shift blame onto Israel for their "own mistakes."
