UN Chief alarmed by new evacuation orders issued by Israel
The new evacuation orders by Israeli authorities in northern Gaza alarm UN Secretary-General António Guterres, Stéphane Dujarric, Spokesperson for the Secretary-General, said in a press briefing on Monday.

News Center- Since the Israeli army resumed its attacks on the Gaza Strip on March 18, 2025, it has killed and injured thousands of civilians in the enclave.
On Sunday, the Israeli army issued new evacuation orders for parts of Jabalya and Gaza City, impacting around 150,000 people.
“I can tell you that the Secretary-General is alarmed by the new evacuation orders issued by Israeli authorities in northern Gaza, which have once again displaced tens of thousands of people,” Stéphane Dujarric, Spokesperson for the Secretary-General, said in a press briefing on Monday. “The Secretary-General condemns the continued loss of civilian life resulting from Israeli airstrikes and any other attacks.”
He called on all parties to “comply fully with international law at all times. Civilians must be respected and protected. There must be full, safe and sustained humanitarian access in accordance with the humanitarian principles of humanity, of impartiality, of neutrality, and independence.
UN urges Israel to allow fuel into Gaza
“Amid ongoing Israeli military operations, scores of people have reportedly been killed and injured, including while waiting for food,” the UN Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA) said in a statement on Monday.
“The World Food Programme (WFP) reports that one in five people faces catastrophic hunger, and more than 90,000 women and children urgently require treatment for malnutrition,” it said.
OCHA reiterated calls on Israel to facilitate the access and entry of essential supplies into Gaza, through the available crossing points and corridors, to address people’s desperate needs.
“The UN and its partners call on the Israeli authorities, with utmost urgency, to allow the entry of fuel into Gaza. This is critically needed for life-saving operations – including hospitals, water and sanitation equipment, telecommunications, moving cargo from crossings, and operating community kitchens.”
