The United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees (UNRWA) in the Gaza Strip announced that its relief services to about 700,000 displaced Palestinians will stop during the next 48 hours, due to the Israeli occupation cutting the flow of fuel into the enclave for the 38th consecutive day, SPA reported.

UNRWA reported that the humanitarian, living, and health conditions are catastrophic in its 150 shelter centers, to which hundreds of thousands of Palestinians have fled to seek refuge from the ongoing Israeli bombardment of Gaza.

It also said that most of bakeries in the enclave have stopped working, due to the exhaustion of fuel as well as the depletion of wheat, further exacerbating the suffering of Palestinians.

The Israeli army carried out airstrikes on Beirut’s southern suburbs, called Dahiyeh, again on Saturday.

It warned residents in parts of the suburbs that they were residing near Hezbollah facilities, which the army would target in the near future.

The warning, posted on X, told people to evacuate at least 500 meters away.

The army said that over the past day it had conducted intelligence-based strikes on Hezbollah targets in Dahiyeh, where Hezbollah has a strong presence. It said it hit several command centers and weapons storage facilities.
