Fletcher stressed during a speech at the UN Security Council session on developments in the Middle East, and presented by the “Cairo News” channel, that the repeated requests for the introduction of aid through the Karam Abu Salem crossing were systematically rejected, which led to food damage and the expiry of the validity of the medicines, as well as the stopping of medical evacuation and humanitarian services.

He explained that Israel cut off the electricity from the desalination factory in southern Gaza, which deprived 600,000 people of clean water, and the prices of vegetables multiplied three times, and it closed six bakeries supported by the World Food Program due to a lack of cooking gas.
Fleecher pointed out that the Israeli restrictions affected all humanitarian organizations in the occupied Palestinian territories, as the entry of United Nations employees to Gaza and their exit from them became more complicated, and the amount of money allowed to enter Gaza was reduced to half, which directly affects humanitarian operations.
