Israel’s military and the United Nations say a few UN trucks carrying humanitarian aid have been allowed into the besieged Gaza Strip, the first such delivery in nearly three months.
UN aid chief Tom Fletcher on Monday said Israeli authorities had cleared nine aid trucks to enter Gaza through the Karem Abu Salem crossing (known as Kerem Shalom in Israel), calling it “a drop in the ocean” when so many more supplies are needed to address a rapidly deteriorating humanitarian crisis.
