Gaza ∙ 22,000 bottles of water. This is the amount of water delivered to Gaza yesterday for 2.3 million people. Four out of the 20 trucks contained medicines. There are currently 200 trucks in the Sinai region awaiting permission to cross the Rafah. World Food Program officials said that 930 metric tons of food items are at the border.

So far they have delivered food items to 5.20 lakh people. However, in the current situation, the authorities estimate that this will have to be increased for 11 lakh people and massive food storage is required.

The whole of Gaza is in darkness due to Israel’s position that they will not allow fuel to be brought in. The last seawater desalination plant will also close today. Attempts are being made to bring foreign passport holders and Jewish people stuck in Gaza to Egypt in the event of the opening of the Rafah border. At least 600 of them are US citizens.

∙ ‘This help is like a drop in the ocean. An attempt to put dust in the eyes of the world by pretending to bring aid.- Nabeel al-Daba (Palestinian refugee in southern Gaza)
