Why are Gazans not getting sorely needed aid?
GAZA STRIP, PALESTINE, JUL 24 – Aid deliveries face delays due to Israeli military restrictions and safety concerns, with over 800 trucks stalled and UN agencies sidelined in favor of Gaza Humanitarian Foundation, officials say.
- On May 26, the Gaza Humanitarian Foundation began operations in Gaza, ending a more than two-month aid blockade as Israel’s chosen distributor.
- Distribution disputes emerged when Israel rejected restoring the UN-led system, citing looting concerns, while the United Nations and aid groups refused to work with GHF over military ties.
- With huge crowds at limited sites, only four GHF distribution sites have seen repeated deadly fire incidents, killing some 800 aid-seekers since late May, UN figures show.
- More than 800 aid trucks remain uncollected, with the Israeli military posting footage of hundreds `sitting idle inside Gaza`.
- Despite urgent needs, more than 100 aid and human rights groups warned this week that `mass starvation` is spreading, as UNRWA reports thousands of trucks banned since March.
