UN officials say real progress is being made today with humanitarian aid being allowed into Gaza.
Eri Kaneko, a spokesperson for the UN’s Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs, says cooking gas supplies have entered Gaza for the first time since March. Other aid moving through includes flour, fruit, and meat.
She adds that officials have also been given additional access to move in medical equipment and help move Palestinians from flood-prone areas to safer locations, ahead of the winter.
