Israeli official says aid deliveries under old mechanism will be ‘temporary,’ until new distribution centers up and running
An unnamed “senior official” says in a statement sent out to reporters that the resumption of aid deliveries to Gaza via the previously used mechanisms is a “temporary measure.”
The official says that this will only last for around a week, until the new aid distribution centers in Gaza are up and running.
Most of these centers will be located in the southern Gaza Strip under IDF security control and operated by private US companies, the official says.
