The UN agency for Palestinian refugees says thousands of people broke into its Gaza aid warehouses to take food and other "basic survival items."


Thomas White, the agency's director in Gaza, said Sunday that the break-in was "a worrying sign that civil order is starting to break down" after three weeks of war between Israel and Gaza's Hamas rulers.


The agency, known as UNRWA, provides basic services to hundreds of thousands of people in Gaza. Its schools across the territory have been transformed into packed shelters housing Palestinians displaced by the conflict.
