Gaza officials warn thousands remain trapped under rubble, say aid flow 'critically insufficient'

Gaza Officials Warn Thousands Remain Trapped Under Rubble

Only 4,453 aid trucks have entered Gaza out of the 15,600 trucks promised under the ceasefire agreement. The humanitarian situation demands urgent intervention to alleviate the suffering of thousands of families waiting for news about their children.

Urgent Call for Rescue Teams and Equipment

The committee urged the immediate entry of specialized international rescue teams and heavy machinery to recover bodies of Palestinians trapped or missing under the rubble.

"Israel’s continued prevention of crucial equipment from entering Gaza is a clear violation of international humanitarian law," the committee stated, calling for international action "to save as many lives as possible and preserve human dignity."

Limited Aid Truck Entries Undermine Relief Efforts

Since the US ‘peace plan’ announcement, only 28 percent of the required aid trucks have entered Gaza. According to the Government Media Office, Israel is pursuing a “policy of strangulation” by restricting necessary supplies.

The statement added that the current volume of aid is insufficient, with Gaza urgently needing a regular flow of no fewer than 600 trucks as stipulated in the agreement.

“These limited quantities do not meet the minimum … needs,” the media office said.

Author’s Summary

The insufficient flow of aid and restricted access in Gaza worsen humanitarian suffering and violate international law, requiring urgent global intervention to save lives and restore dignity.
