UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-Moon during press conference at World Economic Forum in Davos, 29 Jan 2009
The United Nations is asking for $613 million to help Palestinians recover from the recent Israeli offensive in the Gaza Strip.

U.N. Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon announced the appeal Thursday at the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland. The money will provide life-saving assistance during the next six to nine months.

Mr. Ban said civilians in Gaza were already vulnerable because of the ongoing Israeli blockade on the territory that severely restricted supplies.

The secretary-general, along with his emergency relief coordinator, John Holmes, also urged for a sustained opening of all the important crossings into Gaza.

The head of the U.N. relief efforts in Gaza, John Ging, said 900,000 people in the Palestinian territory are receiving U.N. food aid. He said the U.N. agency is also distributing millions of dollars to those who have had their houses damaged and need temporary shelters.
