JAKARTA - The UN Aid Agency for Palestinian Refugees (UNRWA) said access to clean water was a crucial problem in Gaza, Palestine.

UNRWA likens clean water to life and death for Gazans attacked by Israel.

In Gaza, every day is a struggle to get bread and water. Every day is a struggle to survive," said UNRWA on social media account X, Thursday, February 1, confiscated by Antara.

The UN agency stated, "without clean water, more and more people will die from shortages and disease."

Israel launched a deadly attack on the Gaza Strip following the Hamas group's attack on October 7, 2023. To date, Israeli aggression in Gaza is still being carried out and has killed at least 26,900 Palestinians and injured 65,949 others.

Meanwhile, nearly 1,200 Israelis are believed to have died in the Hamas attack.

According to the United Nations, Israel's Aggression has caused 85 percent of Gaza's population to flee amid the food, clean water and medicine crisis, with 60 percent of infrastructure in the enclave damaged and also destroyed.
