UN Humanitarian Chief Tom Fletcher addressed the UN Security Council on the humanitarian crisis in Gaza, arguing that the international community's goal cannot be merely to keep people alive at the edge of survival. He stated that Palestinians in Gaza deserve dignity, safety, education, healthcare, shelter, and the opportunity to rebuild their lives. His remarks come as humanitarian organizations continue to warn of severe shortages of food, clean water, medical supplies, and shelter across the territory. The UN has repeatedly called for greater humanitarian access and protection for civilians, stressing that emergency assistance alone cannot address the scale of suffering or long-term needs.
