The conflict continues
It’s been just over half a year since the war between Israel and Hamas and the constant bombing of the Gaza Strip is still going on. While the international community mobilizes to end the war and the president of the Spanish government, Pedro Sánchez, assures that he will recognize the sovereignty of the Palestinian people next Tuesday, May 28, humanitarian aid for the civilians of the Strip continues to arrive in trickles .
The arrival of humanitarian aid
The United Nations organization reported this past Friday that a total of 97 trucks loaded with supplies for the population have been able to enter the Gaza Strip through the floating spring that the United States has installed on the coast of the Palestinian territory. The World Food Program has taken care of 97 trucks since the floating spring has been operational. We did not lose any trucks, says the spokesman for the UN Secretary General, Stéphane Dujarric, in a press conference.
Dujarric also indicated that the United Nations Agency for Palestine Refugees in the Near East (UNRWA) has not yet resumed food distribution due to insecurity in the context of the Israeli Army’s offensive on the enclave
Fatalities and aid distribution
According to the latest balance of the health authorities of the Strip, there are already 35,857 people who have died and 80,293 wounded as a result of the bloody offensive of the Israeli Army on Gaza in response to the attacks of the terrorist organization of October 7
Dujarric assures that they have been able to “stabilize” the operation to send humanitarian aid, since the first trucks that were sent to the Strip suffered various lootings before they could reach the hands of the agencies in charge of distributing the resources equitably among the population.
In order to preserve the cargo, UN operatives have established several distribution routes. The World Food Program has found several routes to reach its warehouse in Deir el Balá, points out the spokesperson of the Secretary General of the United Nations.
