GAZA, January, 21, 2024 (WAFA) – The media advisor and spokesperson for the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees (UNRWA), Adnan Abu Hasna, confirmed today that the reconstruction process in the Gaza Strip exceeds the agency's capabilities due to the severe damage and destruction that has befallen all aspects of life in the Strip.
He added that the agency can contribute to rehabilitating the infrastructure in the camps and returning employees to work inside them, and operating their wells.
According to the organization's official website, Abu Hasna said that the agency's work has doubled over the past two days after the entry of more than a thousand aid trucks, as thousands of employees are working at maximum capacity in the process of distributing food supplies.
Abu Hasna noted that talking about the service infrastructure in the Gaza Strip requires focusing on the basics, such as enabling municipalities to restart water and its lines and repair wells, as well as electricity companies that need wires, generators and high-voltage lines.
He further affirmed that the search for the missing, whose number exceeds thousands of bodies under the rubble, requires planning and the work of special teams with experience, especially with regard to unexploded shells, the number of which has been estimated at tens of thousands according to UN estimates.
