OCHA said (Full Report): “Between 1 and 10 January, only 14 percent (3 of 21) planned aid deliveries of food, medicines, water, and other lifesaving supplies to the north of Wadi Gaza proceeded. Humanitarian partners were forced to cancel or delay missions in two instances due to excessive delays at Israeli checkpoints or because the agreed routes were unpassable. Humanitarian partners’ ability to respond to extensive needs in the northern side of Gaza is being curtailed by recurring denials of access for aid deliveries and a lack of coordinated, safe access by the Israeli authorities. These denials and severe access constraints paralyze the ability of humanitarian partners to respond meaningfully, consistently, and at-scale.”

“In Deir al Balah and Khan Younis, three hospitals – Al Aqsa, Nasser, and Gaza European – are at risk of closure due to the issuance of evacuation orders in adjacent areas and the ongoing conduct of hostilities nearby.”
On January 9, shelling was again reported in the vicinity of the Al Aqsa Hospital in Deir al Balah, from where most medical staff and many patients had evacuated on January 7. Reportedly, only one emergency doctor and two surgeons remain to respond to hundreds of patients who require treatment in the hospital. On January 7, staff from WHO and OCHA visited the Al Aqsa Hospital and delivered medical supplies to support 4,500 patients needing dialysis for three months and 500 patients requiring trauma care.”
Israel revised its death toll to 1.139 and said seventeen officers and soldiers were injured in the last 24 hours, and on Tuesday nine soldiers were killed and 27 were injured; the declared number of Israeli soldiers killed by Palestinian fighters since October 7 is now 520, including 192 since the beginning of the ground offensive on October 27.
Reports from earlier in the day, Wednesday, revealed that the Israeli army has killed 23,357 Palestinians, including 9600, and injured more than 59,410 since October 7.
The declared number of slain Palestinians does not include an estimated 8,000 more still buried under rubble (4,900 women and children). Euro-Med Monitor reports 30,676 Palestinian deaths, since October 7.
