Gaza Officials Warn Thousands Remain Trapped Under Rubble
Gaza officials report that thousands of residents are still trapped under the rubble, as the incoming humanitarian aid remains critically low. Out of the 15,600 aid trucks promised under the ceasefire agreement, only 4,453 have entered the Gaza Strip, indicating severe limitations on relief efforts.
“The humanitarian situation in Gaza requires urgent intervention to end the suffering of thousands of families waiting to know the fate of their children,” the committee said, urging immediate entry of international rescue teams and heavy equipment to recover trapped and missing Palestinians.
The committee accused Israel of continuing to block vital equipment from entering Gaza, describing it as a violation of international humanitarian law. They called upon the international community to act swiftly “to save as many lives as possible and preserve human dignity.”
Restrictions on Aid Delivery
According to Gaza’s Government Media Office, only 28 percent of the required humanitarian aid has reached the region since the announcement of the U.S. peace plan. The office stated that Israel is enforcing “a policy of strangulation,” limiting supplies below essential needs.
“These limited quantities do not meet the minimum needs, and the strip urgently needs a regular flow of no less than 600 trucks,”
the statement said, emphasizing that consistent delivery of aid is necessary to uphold the ceasefire commitments and provide basic humanitarian relief.
