The UN’s World Food Programme (WFP) says it has begun delivering food in the Gaza Strip, but that it is not enough, as it calls on the Israeli authorities to allow at least 100 aid trucks per day through the northern, central, and southern border points.
In a statement, it said that since May 21, when border crossings reopened to limited amounts of aid, WFP teams have been able to dispatch dozens of aid convoys, but despite this, the food delivered to date is still “a tiny fraction of what a population of over two million people need to survive”.
