UN Chief Says Gaza War in 'Cruelest Phase' as Aid Trucks Looted

  • UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres described the Gaza war as entering its cruelest phase on May 23, 2025, amid severe humanitarian strains in Gaza.
  • This situation follows an 11-week Israeli blockade starting March 2, 2025, which halted all aid, fuel, and shipments into Gaza and was recently softened to allow limited aid entry.
  • Despite Israel permitting about 300 aid trucks since lifting the blockade, only a third of supplies actually reach warehouses in Gaza due to insecurity and attacks on aid convoys.
  • Guterres said Israel authorized only a "teaspoon of aid when a flood is needed," while Hamas-run authorities report over 53,000 Palestinian deaths, mostly women and children.
  • The limited aid and ongoing military offenses suggest worsening humanitarian conditions, with risks of famine and greater civilian casualties unless aid access improves rapidly.
