UN Humanitarian Coordinator calls for resumption of entry of aid into Gaza

AMMAN — Humanitarian Coordinator for Occupied Palestinian Territory Muhannad Hadi, has denounced Israel’s block of entry of humanitarian assistance into Gaza.
Humanitarian aid in Gaza is a lifeline for over two million Palestinians who have endured unimaginable conditions for many months. A sustained supply of aid is indispensable to their survival,” Hadi said in a statement.
“International humanitarian law is clear: civilians' essential needs must be met, including through the unimpeded entry and distribution of humanitarian assistance.”
Hadi called for resuming entry of lifesaving aid into Gaza “immediately”.
“Any further delays will further reverse any progress we have managed to achieve during the ceasefire.”
Stressing the need for Israel-Hamas ceasefire to hold, he called on parties to “fulfill their obligations under international law. Hostages must be released.”
“Humanitarian assistance must be allowed in.”
