Nearly 460 trucks carrying humanitarian aid entered the Gaza Strip yesterday through the Kerem Shalom and Kissufim crossings, Israel’s Coordinator of Government Activities in the Territories (COGAT) says.

According to COGAT, some 310 trucks’ worth of aid were also collected by the United Nations and other international organizations from the Gaza side of the crossings yesterday for distribution

“The contents of hundreds of trucks are still awaiting collection on the Gazan side of the crossings,” COGAT says.

COGAT notes that the collection of aid will “continue on the Gazan side of the crossings, despite the closure on the Israeli side due to the holiday.”

Similar amounts of aid deliveries have been reported daily in the past few weeks. The UN has said 600 trucks of aid need to be distributed each day in order to properly feed the Strip’s roughly two million people amid the war.

COGAT also says that “tankers of UN fuel entered for the operation of essential humanitarian systems” yesterday.
