The UN noted Tuesday that restrictions on humanitarian aid distribution in Gaza continue, hindering timely access to assistance for thousands of needy individuals, APA reports citing Anadolu Agency.

"Our colleagues from the Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs report that access constraints continue to impede the timely delivery of life-saving aid, particularly the hundreds of 1000s of people in northern Gaza," deputy spokesperson Farhan Haq said at a news conference.

Noting that "less than half of planned humanitarian aid missions in northern Gaza were facilitated by the Israeli authorities" during the first two weeks of March, Haq said, "That's 11 out of 24 missions, the rest were either denied or postponed."
