GAZA STRIP, PALESTINE, JUL 30 – UN officials report ongoing casualties and hunger during Israel's pauses and stress that only a permanent ceasefire can enable continuous aid flow to meet Gaza's immense needs.
- On Wednesday, the United Nations said Israel's unilateral tactical pauses are insufficient, emphasizing that `A permanent ceasefire is needed more than ever` and `unilateral tactical pauses alone do not allow for the continuous flow of supplies` in Gaza.

- UN Deputy Spokesperson Farhan Haq reported that four days into the announced pauses, casualties and hunger-related deaths persist, and current fuel entries are insufficient to meet critical needs.
- Tuesday, the Integrated Food Security Phase Classification Initiative said the worst-case famine is unfolding in Gaza, with Ricardo Pires noting two of three criteria are met.
- OCHA called for all crossings into Gaza to open and a broad range of humanitarian and commercial supplies to be allowed in, urging aid movement safeguards and prompt relief worker access.
