  5. 05Israeli forces control or restrict access to about 65 percent of Gaza, with 2.1 million people in the remaining accessible area.

02Why it matters

This story matters because the 'ceasefire' has failed to halt the killing of civilians, especially children, and the humanitarian crisis worsens with winter approaching and food insecurity rising.
