President Spoljaric underscored the scale of destruction and hardship facing the population, where more than 90% of housing has been damaged or destroyed and access to food, water, and essential services is critically limited. She warned of the increasing risk of famine and the collapse of civilian infrastructure, including health care and sanitation systems.
