He also expressed concern over the humanitarian conditions in Gaza in the shadow of the shortage of fuel and essential food items, urging Israel to allow in shipments of fuel and cooking gas to Gaza's 1.5 million residents.
He declared reception of fuel , needed to run the UNRWA vehicles and that this would help the UNRWA to resume providing services to more that 700,000 registered refugees in Gaza, including food rations distribution and sanitation services.
