United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA) Occupied Palestinian Territory (OPT) weekly situation report on Gaza covering through February 19, 2026, with the Mekorot water supply line still shut. At least 308,098 pallets offloaded since the ceasefire. Of 67 UN humanitarian missions coordinated with Israeli authorities during the period, 13% were denied outright. The Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) distributed more than 1,800 metric tons of animal feed to livestock holders. The report documents severe agricultural damage, with livestock survival rates of 33% for goats, 20% for sheep, and 11% for poultry since the start of the war. Valuable for researchers studying the agricultural and food system dimensions of Gaza's post-ceasefire crisis, with important data on livestock survival rates and FAO interventions alongside the persistent pattern of humanitarian mission denials.
