NEW YORK – SABA
The total number of displaced people in Gaza has moved from 1.7 to 1.9 million people, the UNICEF Deputy Executive Director Ted Chaiban has said.

He also said when he was in Gaza last time in January, "there were 99 to 100 humanitarian trucks entering on an average every day. In August, 50 humanitarian trucks were entering daily on average and in September, barely 15 because of concerns around law and order, limitations on the so-called fence road and too few entry points."

He said: In Gaza too, devastating attacks on schools, hospitals and internally displaced sites continue, with over 14,000 children reported killed according to the Palestinian Ministry of Health and leaving already overwhelmed hospitals buckling under the strain."
