Going back into 'hell': An aid worker's journey through shattered Gaza

Over and above the difficulty of actually getting into Gaza, aid teams now face the crushing realization that with a shortage of fuel and dwindling supplies, there is a limit to what they can do to help all those in need, UN aid worker Louise Wateridge told UN News on Friday.

"You can hear bombardments from the north, the middle and the south...Gaza now really is hell on earth, It's very hot...Trash is piling up everywhere, people living under plastic sheeting where temperatures soar," said Ms. Wateridge, a Senior Communications Officer with the UN agency for Palestinian refugees, UNRWA, hours after returning to the shattered enclave since Hamas-led terror attacks and hostage-taking last October sparked the war.
