Canadian charity close to getting aid trucks into Gaza for first time since March
GAZA, PALESTINIAN TERRITORIES, AUG 1 – Human Concern International is close to delivering its first food aid to Gaza since March after Israel eased restrictions, with two trucks carrying flour ready to enter the territory.
- A Canadian charity, Human Concern International, is close to delivering its first aid shipment into Gaza since Israel’s blockade started in March 2025.
- The aid delivery delays are linked to the blockade Israel enforced in March and restrictions on accessing aid, with both Israel and the UN frequently attributing the hold-ups to each other.
- In the last five days, Israel has allowed approximately 600 aid trucks to enter Gaza, which nearly equals the daily number the UN identifies as necessary to address the territory's humanitarian needs.

- The aid delivery efforts suggest progress amidst ongoing challenges, including unsafe convoy routes, persistent blockade effects, and calls for increased and diversified humanitarian access.
