Gaza Government Media Office describes this as part of Israel’s ongoing policy of chaos and starvation in Gaza

Israel allowed 104 humanitarian aid trucks to enter the Gaza Strip late last month, most of which were looted under its supervision, said the Gaza Government Media Office.

In a statement from the media office, officials said Israel permitted the entry of the trucks on July 29 but that “most of these aid trucks were looted and pillaged due to the security chaos deliberately and systematically maintained by the occupation.”

The statement described this as part of Israel’s ongoing policy of chaos and starvation in Gaza.

It emphasized that Israel’s primary goal is to sabotage the distribution of humanitarian aid and prevent civilians from benefiting from it.

It also highlighted that at least 600 trucks of relief materials and fuel are needed daily to meet Gaza’s minimum requirements in the health, services and food sectors.

The statement held Israel and its supporting countries fully responsible for the ongoing humanitarian disaster in Gaza and called for the immediate and full reopening of border crossings to allow aid to enter.

At least 160 Palestinians have died from malnutrition and hunger since the start of Israel's genocidal war on Oct. 7, 2023, including 91 children, according to the Gaza Ministry of Health.

Local sources report that Israel has kept border crossings closed for more than five months, blocking the entry of baby formula, medicines and basic food supplies.
