To give you a sense of how this complicated operation has to work, the Israeli authorities are requiring us to offload supplies on the Palestinian side of Kerem Shalom crossing and reload them separately once they secure our teams’ access from inside the Gaza Strip. Only then are we able to bring any supplies closer to where people in need are sheltering. Today, one of our team waited several hours for Israeli green light to access Kerem Shalom area and collect the nutrition supplies. Unfortunately, they were not able to bring those supplies into our warehouse. So, just to make it clear, while more https://press.un.org/en/2025/db250510.doc.htmsupplies have come into the Gaza Strip, we have not been able to secure the arrival of those supplies into our warehouses and delivery points.
