The number of trucks carrying humanitarian aid that Israeli authorities allow to enter the Gaza Strip is not enough to help civilians. Riyad Mansour, permanent observer of the international organization from Palestine, stated this at the UN Security Council meeting. RIA News.
The diplomat said hundreds of trucks carrying essential goods have been allowed into the Palestinian territory in the past 30 days. He emphasized that Israel allowed additional vehicles to enter the designated area.
However, as Mansur points out, such decisions are made only for show. The diplomat emphasized that the Israeli government wants to show the international community that it is not besieging the Gaza Strip in this way.
“They (trucks – socialbites.ca) are not enough to save lives. “Israel is implementing imaginary humanitarian stops whose sole purpose is to force people to flee rather than providing aid to ensure their survival,” said a Palestinian observer.
November 10 UN Secretary General Spokesperson Stephane Dujarric stated About the international organization’s readiness to significantly increase the volume of humanitarian aid provided to the Gaza Strip. However, the diplomat said that this would require opening additional checkpoints on the border of the Palestinian region.
Previously Israeli officials denied Allow UN High Commissioner for Human Rights Volker Türk to enter the country.
