Let's Not Waste Time: UN to Resume Aid Delivery to Gaza
"To those proposing an alternative modality for aid distribution, let's not waste time: We already have a plan," Tom Fletcher said in a statement.
Since March 2, Israel has kept Gaza’s crossings closed to food, medical and humanitarian aid, deepening an already worsening humanitarian crisis in the enclave.
"It is rooted in the non-negotiable principles of humanity, impartiality, neutrality and independence. It is backed by a coalition of donors and the vast majority of the international community. It is ready to be activated – today – if we are simply allowed to do our jobs," said Fletcher.
He said that 160,000 pallets of relief are ready to enter Gaza now.
"We demand rapid, safe, and unimpeded aid delivery for civilians in need. Let us work," he added.
