Israeli strikes in northern Gaza kill at least 78

Israel's words must be matched by action on the ground. Right now, that is not happening. This must change, immediately,

she told the UN Security Council

Now, as the situation in northern Gaza continues to deteriorate, the likelihood of a larger group being impacted by famine will surely increase unless conditions on the ground improve,

said WFP, the United Nations' food agency

Restrictions on humanitarian aid coming into Gaza are severe,

WFP said

They are after children, and women, there is no fighting here, it is only Israeli hell bombs dropped on our heads from the sky,

said Adel, 60, a Beit Lahiya resident

Ali Khameneisupreme Leader

The world has forgotten about us, north Gaza is being wiped out by bombs, by starvation and by displacement,

said Ali, a resident of Jabalia who asked that his full name not be used for fears of reprisals

There are tens of martyrs (dead) - tens of displaced people were living in this house. The house was bombed without prior warning,

Ismail Ouaida, a witness who was helping to recover bodies, said in a video shared on social media

People who are bombed die before medical teams arrive, and those who make it to hospitals die too because there is no medication,

he told Reuters, refusing to give a full name

North Gaza is a place of hell - a big operation of killing, destruction, rubble, makeshift graveyards and famine,

Adnan Abu Hasna, Gaza media spokesperson for the U.N. Palestinian refugee agency UNRWA told Reuters in Cairo

People are being killed without ambulances able to reach them or hospitals to treat them. We don't have coffins, we use blankets instead, though we are in acute need of blankets as it is getting colder at night,

he told Reuters via a chat app

Severing this lifeline in Gaza as winter threatens to exacerbate an already desperate situation is cruel and dangerous,

said William Bell, the Middle East head of Christian Aid, a British charity

The health-care system has completely collapsed,

Abu Safiya said in a voice message to journalists on Tuesday

The humanitarian operation in Gaza, if that is unraveled, that is a disaster within a series of disasters and just doesn't bear thinking about,

said UNRWA spokesperson John Fowler

Ultimately, we will ensure that a more efficient replacement for UNRWA takes its role, not one which is infiltrated by the terrorist organization,

he said

We call on the world to send specialised medical delegations,

the doctor told Al Jazeera

The images we are seeing show that more bodies are being pulled from under the rubble, including women and children,

he said

This is the latest in the ongoing campaign to discredit UNRWA and delegitimize its role,

he wrote

Critical cases without intervention will succumb to their destiny and die,

the Health Ministry said in a statement

Look at how terrifying and frightening it is for the children. Look at how we are living, there is no food and water,

Al-Qassas said, pointing to the cemetery's gravestones

There is no life anymore in the entire Gaza Strip, whether in the north or in the south,

said Al-Qassas' wife, Ghada

My children have nothing to eat or drink. They cry all night long. They want food. Where can I get it from?"

Al-Qassas said, adding
