UN Receives Approval to Send 100 Aid Trucks Into Gaza Amid Humanitarian Crisis

The United Nations received approval on May 20, 2025, to send about 100 aid trucks into the Gaza Strip to address the humanitarian crisis.
This approval came after an 11-week Israeli blockade that caused severe deficits in food, water, and medical supplies for the 2.3 million residents of the enclave.
Despite nine trucks being cleared and five entering Gaza via the Kerem Shalom crossing, UN officials describe these deliveries as insufficient compared to urgent needs.
UN spokesman Jens Laerke reported that the UN has secured permission for a significantly higher number of trucks to deliver aid today compared to the previous day, including shipments of baby food and nutritional supplies for children.
Malnutrition in Gaza is rising and could increase exponentially if shortages persist, making the aid delivery crucial to prevent worsening conditions and mortal danger for vulnerable groups.
