‘Insurmountable task’ for humanitarian groups in Gaza: Analysis

Nicholas Orr, chief officer of the Explosive Ordnance Disposal Project working to disarm munitions in Gaza, says any humanitarian activity in the war-ravaged enclave faces an “insurmountable task ahead”.

“It’s going to take decades to get this back to some kind of normality with what we’re seeing here in Gaza,” Orr told Al Jazeera.

He explained his group is focusing on areas south of Wadi, including Deir el-Balah, Khan Younis and the top of Rafah, anticipating the further movement of internally displaced people.

The aftermath in Khan Younis after Israel’s ground invasion is something he had “never seen” in his time working on disposing of explosives, said Orr.
