日内瓦，10月16日 - 联合国儿童基金会（UNICEF）周五表示，加沙地区在应对营养不良方面取得的进展仍然脆弱，可能因进入巴勒斯坦飞地的物资供应中断而被削弱，呼吁保持所有过境点开放。
GENEVA, Oct 16 - Gains in tackling malnutrition in Gaza remain fragile and could be undermined by disruptions to supplies entering the Palestinian enclave, the UN children's agency UNICEF said on Friday, urging that all crossings remain open.
以色列周三表示，由于当地商民与武装组织哈马斯之间存在税收争议，商业货物不再进入加沙。
Israel said on Wednesday commercial goods were no longer entering Gaza because of what it described as a dispute over taxes between local merchants and militant group Hamas.
这切断了该地区一个至关重要的食品和其他物资来源，该地区大多数人在经历三年战争、反复流离失所以及以色列对援助运输的严格限制后，依赖人道主义援助生存。
That has cut off a vital source of food and other goods in a territory where most depend on humanitarian assistance after three years of war, repeated displacement and stringent Israeli restrictions on aid deliveries.
尽管停火改善了援助准入并减少了大规模战斗，但人道主义机构表示，持续的袭击、继续的流离失所以及广泛的破坏使平民处于高度脆弱状态。
Although the ceasefire has improved aid access and reduced large-scale fighting, humanitarian agencies say ongoing strikes, continued displacement and widespread destruction have left civilians highly vulnerable.
在日内瓦接受记者采访时，联合国儿童基金会发言人里卡多·皮雷斯表示，商业和人道主义物资的流动必须保持可预测和连续。
Speaking to reporters in Geneva, UNICEF spokesperson Ricardo Pires said the flow of both commercial and humanitarian supplies must remain predictable and continuous.
他说：“如果这种情况得不到解决，对儿童的影响显然会被感受到。”
“The impact on children obviously will be felt if this situation is not resolved," he said.
“我们不能回到儿童和家庭无法获得他们所需的全部物资、商品和服务的情况。”
"We can't go back to a situation where children and families are not getting all the supplies, goods, and services that they require." A new UNICEF report published on Friday found that while the ceasefire since October has allowed more humanitarian aid and commercial supplies to enter, acute malnutrition remains a risk.
联合国儿童基金会周五发布的一份新报告发现，尽管自10月以来的停火使更多人道主义援助和商业物资得以进入，但急性营养不良仍然构成风险。
The report said progress in pushing back the threat of famine, confirmed by a global food security monitor in August last year, had been achieved through a scaled-up food and nutrition response, the easing of restrictions on the entry of food and nutrition supplies, and the ceasefire.
报告称，通过扩大食品和营养响应、放宽对食品和营养物资进入的限制以及停火，去年八月由全球粮食安全监测机构确认的饥荒威胁已被推回，取得了进展。然而，报告指出，这些成果仍然脆弱。
However, those gains remain fragile, it said.
“急性营养不良率虽有所下降，但目前仅有三分之一的两岁以下儿童能够达到最低饮食多样性标准，”报告指出。联合国儿童基金会于6月份开展的一项调查也发现，慢性营养不良现象十分普遍，五岁以下儿童中每八人就有一人深受其害。
“Acute malnutrition rates have fallen, but only one in three children under the age of two is currently achieving minimum dietary diversity,” the report stated. A survey conducted by UNICEF in June also found a significant prevalence of chronic malnutrition, affecting one in eight children under five.
联合国儿童基金会还呼吁改善这一饱受破坏地区的居住条件。目前约有80万名儿童仍流离失所，随着冬季临近，他们大多只能住在帐篷或不安全的建筑物中。该机构强调，改善住房条件并提供基本服务对于实现地区的长期恢复至关重要。
UNICEF also called for improvements in living conditions in the largely devastated enclave, where some 800,000 children are still displaced and most live in tents or unsafe buildings as winter approaches, saying better shelter and basic services are essential to support a lasting recovery.
