Gaza officials warn thousands remain trapped under rubble, say aid flow 'critically insufficient'

Gaza Officials Warn Thousands Trapped Under Rubble

Only 4,453 aid trucks have entered Gaza, far below the 15,600 trucks agreed upon in the ceasefire deal. This limited aid flow leaves thousands of families desperately waiting to learn the fate of their children.

Urgent Need for Rescue and Equipment

The committee called for the immediate deployment of specialized international rescue teams and heavy machinery to help recover bodies of those trapped and missing.

“The humanitarian situation in Gaza requires urgent intervention to end the suffering of thousands of families waiting to know the fate of their children.”

Israel’s ongoing blockage of crucial equipment is a clear violation of international humanitarian law, prompting demands for swift international action to save lives and protect human dignity.

Aid Truck Entrances Below Requirement

According to Gaza’s Government Media Office, only 28% of the required aid trucks have entered Gaza since the announcement of the US peace plan. The office described Israel's measures as a policy of strangulation.

“Only 4,453 trucks have been allowed into Gaza out of the 15,600 trucks that were supposed to enter as part of the agreement.”

The limited aid volume fails to meet basic needs. The Gaza Strip urgently requires a consistent flow of no less than 600 trucks daily, as stipulated by the ceasefire agreement.

Humanitarian Call to Action

The situation demands immediate intervention from the international community to alleviate suffering and ensure continuous aid delivery.

Author summary: Despite the ceasefire agreement, Gaza receives less than a third of the promised aid trucks, aggravating humanitarian suffering and risking lives under the rubble.
