Knives are sharp,

Lebanon 🇱🇧

OCHA reports that ongoing hostilities continue to displace people. The national authorities in Lebanon report that 1.2 million people have been affected or displaced. As of October 13th, the International Organization for Migration has identified more than 740,000 people displaced by the escalation of hostilities within the country. Of these people, more than 188,000 are staying in about 1,000 government shelters. UNHCR is working with the Lebanese authorities to upgrade the shelters with weatherproofing and rehabilitation of water and sanitation facilities, as well as assessing more sites to host displaced people. 

Falastin 🇵🇸

The health partners warn that only three hospitals in North Gaza Governorate are now operating – and only at minimum capacity. These facilities have dire shortages of fuel, blood, trauma items and medications. About 285 patients remain in these hospitals, as military activities continue outside. 
Despite the recent evacuation of some patients from Kamal Adwan hospital in the north, the World Health Organization warns that the facility remains overwhelmed, receiving between 50 and 70 newly injured patients each day.

Yemen 🇾🇪

For her part, the Acting Under-Secretary-General for Humanitarian Affairs, Joyce Msuya, said that, currently, the humanitarian appeal for Yemen is 41 per cent funded. However, the food security sector quickly needs an additional $870 million. Without this, she warned that an estimated 9 million people across Yemen will not receive emergency food aid in the last quarter of 2024. But she underscored that the humanitarian community remains determined to deliver at scale for the 18.2 million people in need.
