Just 36 aid trucks entered Gaza yesterday, Palestinian officials claim – short of 600 needed | World News
Just 36 aid trucks entered Gaza on Saturday – despite the humanitarian situation in the enclave worsening, Palestinian officials have warned.
According to the Gazan government’s media office, most of the humanitarian supplies were looted and stolen – “as a result of the state of security chaos that the Israeli occupation systematically and deliberately perpetuates”.
Officials say at least 600 truckloads of aid are required on a daily basis, adding: “The needs of the population are worsening.”
Aid workers are in constant threat of being persecuted and attacked, not just by IDF soldiers, but Israeli militia, that is protected by the IDF.
