The Palestinian Red Crescent has raised alarms that aid trucks recently allowed into Gaza have not yet reached civilians. Despite Israel lifting a blockade on aid after three months, UN agencies have expressed frustration over the slow distribution process. Most aid trucks remain at the Karem Shalom border crossing, pending Israeli authorization to proceed. Meanwhile, deterioration in living conditions has prompted an increase in starvation-related deaths among vulnerable populations, emphasizing the urgent need for unhindered access to essential supplies to avert further humanitarian crises.
The limited number of aid deliveries to Gaza risks chaos and violence, as many trucks remain stuck at the border awaiting permission after a blockade.
Younis Al-Khatib, President of the Palestine Red Crescent Society, stated that no civilians have received aid yet, with most trucks still at the border.
