UN Reports Over One Million in Gaza Require Shelter; Calls for Ceasefire in Sudan

UN spokesperson Stéphane Dujarric reported on Tuesday that more than one million individuals in the Gaza Strip are in urgent need of shelter assistance. He emphasized that relying on tents is not a viable long-term solution, as they only offer temporary protection and do not address the ongoing needs of the population.

In a related statement, Dujarric underscored the UN's urgent appeal for an immediate ceasefire in Sudan, highlighting the critical need to safeguard civilians and prevent violations that jeopardize their lives amid the ongoing armed conflict.

Dujarric's remarks underscore the severity of the humanitarian crises affecting multiple regions, where civilians in Gaza are grappling with a dire shelter situation, while those in Sudan endure the ramifications of a violent conflict that threatens both national and regional stability.
