Israel has blocked the entry of humanitarian aid to the territory since the end of Alto El Fuego in March, plunging Gaza in what is believed is the worst humanitarian crisis in almost 19 months of war.

The irruption, which took place in a training center and a Field Office of the UNRWA, also caused damage to trucks and buses of the agency, he added. No injuries were reported among the staff.
