Thomas White, director of UNRWA affairs in Gaza, says "nothing has changed" in the besieged enclave since the UN Security Council passed a resolution Friday evening to boost aid.

"People continue to be be pushed around Gaza into an increasingly smaller space; aid trucks alone are not going to solve that problem. We have Rafah right now - a city that normally has 280,000 people - hosting a million people," White told Al Jazeera.

He reiterated the need for a ceasefire to end the suffering of civilians, hundreds of thousands of whom are living in the open, as "air strikes continue to hit all parts of Gaza".
