The United Nations humanitarian chief has reported that famine has been mostly averted in Gaza as a significant amount of aid flows into the territory during a delicate ceasefire. The ceasefire, which began on Jan. 19, has seen hundreds of trucks carrying humanitarian assistance entering Gaza daily.
Since the ceasefire took effect, more than 12,600 aid trucks have been able to reach Gaza, a substantial increase facilitated by Israel's commitment to allowing 600 aid trucks into the territory each day. This influx of aid has helped alleviate the threat of famine that loomed large over Gaza before the ceasefire.
