Humanitarian aid deliveries to Gaza have resumed, but their volume remains significantly below the required level, the UN Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA) reported on Wednesday.

The UN Deputy Special Coordinator for the Middle East Peace Process, Ramiz Alakbarov, welcomed the opening of the Kerem Shalom/Karem Abu Salem crossing and the flow of vital supplies, including fuel, into Gaza.

Trailers carrying wheat flour, canned goods, and other ready-to-eat foods were unloaded at the crossing. During missions coordinated with Israeli authorities, UN personnel also distributed tents, medical supplies, hygiene products, and baby items.

Ramiz Alakbarov stressed that a stable and predictable flow of humanitarian aid in sufficient quantities, as well as the resumption of medical evacuations, are crucial to alleviating the ongoing suffering of the people of Gaza.

The humanitarian situation in the enclave is complicated by natural conditions: more than 900 sites for internally displaced persons across Gaza are at risk of flooding, which could further worsen the situation for hundreds of thousands of people.
