Statement by Principals of the Inter-Agency Standing Committee \u201cWe need an immediate humanitarian ceasefire\u201d<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n NEW YORK\/GENEVA\/ROME, 5 November 2023 \u2013 For almost a month, the world has been watching the unfolding situation in Israel and the Occupied Palestinian Territory in shock and horror at the spiralling numbers of lives lost and torn apart. However, the horrific killings of even more civilians in Gaza is an outrage, as is cutting off 2.2 million Palestinians from food, water, medicine, electricity and fuel. In Gaza, according to the Ministry of Health, nearly 9,500 people have been killed, including 3,900 children and over 2,400 women. More than 23,000 injured people require immediate treatment within overstretched hospitals. An entire population is besieged and under attack, denied access to the essentials for survival, bombed in their homes, shelters, hospitals and places of worship. This is unacceptable. More than 100 attacks against health care have been reported. Scores of aid workers have been killed since October 7 including 88 UNRWA colleagues \u2013 the highest number of United Nations fatalities ever recorded in a single conflict.<\/p>\n\n\n\n We renew our plea for the parties to respect all their obligations under international humanitarian and human rights law. We renew our call for the immediate and unconditional release of all civilians held hostage. Civilians and the infrastructure they rely on \u2013 including hospitals, shelters and schools \u2013 must be protected. More aid \u2013 food, water, medicine and of course fuel \u2013 must enter Gaza safely, swiftly and at the scale needed, and must reach people in need, especially women and children, wherever they are.

on the situation in Israel and the Occupied Palestinian Territory<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
In Israel, some 1,400 people have been killed and thousands have been injured, according to the
Israeli authorities. More than 200 people, including children, have been taken hostage. Rockets
continue to traumatize families. Tens of thousands of people have been displaced. This is horrific.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
We need an immediate ceasefire. It\u2019s been 30 days. Enough is enough. This must stop now.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n\n
