Under the new provisions, INGOs already registered in Israel may face de-registration, while new applicants risk rejection.

Restrictions on movement and total siege making aid operations almost impossible.

Israel's decision is a reckless act of collective punishment, explicitly prohibited under international humanitarian law.

A dramatic rise in Israeli military violence has caused the largest forced displacement in the West Bank since the illegal Israeli occupation began. As the ‘Gazafication’ of the West Bank unfolds, vital humanitarian work and projects are being delayed or destroyed, Oxfam warned today.  

A new survey of 35 aid agencies working in Gaza found that Israel failed to improve humanitarian access over the last year.

After more than a year of a brutal military assault and blocking of aid by Israeli authorities, this pause is long overdue.

Response to the alert issued last night, by the IPC’s Famine Review Committee, which warned of imminent famine in northern Gaza.

The Israeli forces’ assault on Gaza has escalated to a horrifying level of atrocity. Northern Gaza is being wiped off the map. Under the guise of “evacuation,” Israeli forces have ordered the forced displacement of an estimated 400,000 Palestinians trapped in northern Gaza, including Gaza City. This is not an evacuation—this is forced displacement under gunfire.

Israeli explosive weapons hit civilian infrastructure in Gaza once every three hours. 

 The UN Security Council (UNSC) is failing people living in conflict, with Russia and the United States particularly responsible for abusing their veto power which is blocking progress toward peace in Ukraine, Syria, and the Occupied Palestinian Territory and Israel. Ahead of the UN Summit for the Future, Oxfam calls for reform of the UN Security Council to stop the “Permanent Five” from being their own “judge and jury”.
