Aid agencies continued to criticize Israel, after it had announced that they will send a small convoy from truck with vital supplies to Gaza Strip.
Cogat, the Israeli military body, which was responsible for civil matters in the occupied Palestinian area, confirmed on Friday that 107 trucks had entered the enclave the day before, loaded with flour, medicine and equipment.
Aid agencies and others have convicted Israel’s politics to only enable minimal auxiliary volumes in Gaza Strip, which the Israeli military has been blocking for almost three months.
They insist that the stocks for the millions that are trapped in the territory are far from enough, and add that even the small amounts that manage in humans do not make it to people due to Israeli attacks and looting.
The programs follow the announcement of Israel on Sunday that it would enable “minimal” humanitarian aid to the area for the first time since the implementation of a total blockage in early March.
In the middle of the warnings of increasing hunger and the humanitarian disaster, Israel said that the decision to enable help in Gaza was driven by diplomatic concerns.
The global outrage rose when the 11-week siege has progressed and the 2.1 million people of Gaza left on the verge of hunger, with medicine and fuel supply being exhausted.
The United Nations underground general secretary for humanitarian affairs and emergency aid coordinator Tom Fletcher has branded the aids “a drop into the ocean” and warned that much greater access is necessary to tackle the escalating crisis.
The United Nations estimates that at least 500 trucks are required every day. Since the announcement of Monday, according to Cogat, only 300 trucks have made it, including on Thursday.
Attacks and looting
Aid agencies also state that even the help that is approved in Gaza does not reach any people.
“Due to uncertainty, looting risk, delays in coordination permits and inappropriate routes of Israeli forces that do not have to do for the movement of freight, the UN for the coordination of humanitarian affairs (OCHA) remain essential challenges in charging and sending goods due to uncertainty, looting risk, looting risk, coordination permits, coordination permits, coordination permits and inappropriate routes. said.
On Friday, Hamas said that Israeli air raids killed at least six Palestinians who guarded auxiliary cars against looters.
A roof network of Palestinian auxiliary groups stated that only 119 auxiliary cars have occurred in Gaza since Israel made its blockade easier on Monday and that the distribution by looting, including armed groups of people, was hindered.
“They stole food for children and families who suffer from severe hunger,” said the network in an explanation.
The United Nations’ World Food Program said on Friday that 15 of its trucks were looted in southern Gaza while on the way to WFP-supported bakeries.
“Most people live from food waste”
The situation continues to worsen in the Gaza.
Dr. Ahmed al-Farrah from Nasser Hospital said Al Jazera that the health system was overwhelmed.
“Most people now live from scraps of food of what they had in stock,” he said. “I assume that there will be many victims due to nutritional uncertainty.”
Officials from the Palestinian Ministry of Health said on Thursday that at least 29 children and the elderly have died in the past few days for hunger -related reasons and thousands were more at risk.
The spokesman for the UN Secretary-General of Antonio Guterres said that the help was distributed through UN mechanisms, but emphasized that the amount that “is not sufficient” “is not sufficient”.
Great Britain, France and Canada’s leaders warned Israel on Monday that their countries would take measures, including possible sanctions, if Israel does not increase auxiliary restrictions.
“The rejection of the Israeli government of essential humanitarian aid among the civilian population is unacceptable and risks against international humanitarian law,” says a joint statement by the British government.
“We will not hesitate to take further measures, including targeted sanctions,” added.
In response to this, the office of the Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu accused the trio of “being on the wrong side of history” and supporting “mass murderers, rapists, baby sponsors and kidnappers”.
