Flour and other food aid reaches some of Gaza’s most vulnerable people after Israel let some trucks through, but nowhere near enough to make up for shortages caused by an 11-week blockade, Palestinian officials have said, according to Reuters.
“Some bakeries will begin receiving flour to produce bread, and we expect the distribution of bread to begin later today,” Amjad al-Shawa, director of the Palestinian Non-Governmental Organisations Network in Gaza, told Reuters.
He said just 90 trucks have gotten through.
“During the ceasefire, 600 trucks used to enter every day, which means that the current quantity is a drop in the ocean, nothing,” he said.
“The idea is to try and reach the most needy families, those who are desperate, as it is just the start,” Shawa said.
