Days of Palestine, Tehran –United Nations humanitarian chief Valerie Amos said on Sunday that rebuilding UN’s infrastructure in Gaza needs months.
“Damage to hospitals, schools and UNRWA shelters, where people displaced sought refuge, will take months to rebuild,” Amos said.
She was speaking to reporters at the start of a two-day visit for talks with Iranian officials on the humanitarian crises wreaked by conflicts in the Gaza Strip, Syria and Iraq.
“The UN response continues, including deliveries of food, water and households goods,” said she. “Medicines and fuel are being delivered to hospitals.”
A total of 97 UNRWA facilities, including health and food distribution centres, as well as schools, have been damaged in the massive Israeli war against the Gaza Strip that started in July 8.
