Nine hundred trucks carrying humanitarian aid have arrived in the Gaza Strip, which has faced severe shortages of food and basic supplies in recent months due to Israel's blockade of the northern part of the enclave, the Qatari TV channel Al Jazeera reported, citing the UN Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs ( OCHA) report.
About 900 trucks carrying humanitarian aid arrived in Gaza on Tuesday to head to war-torn areas after Israel lifted its blockade.
Two weeks ago, OCHA warned that the hunger crisis in the Gaza Strip continues to worsen due to severe food shortages due to severe restrictions on access to the Palestinian enclave.
The resumption of humanitarian supplies was made possible after Qatari Prime Minister and Foreign Minister Mohammed bin Abdel Rahman Al Thani announced on January 15 that, following mediation efforts by Washington, Doha and Cairo, the conflicting parties had reached an agreement on the release of hostages in the Gaza Strip and About the cease-fire of the regime in Gaza. The cessation of hostilities officially came on January 19.
