Aid to Gaza Falls by 80% Amid Israel’s Crossing Closures Since Start of Iran Assault
Gaza (QNN)- The number of aid trucks entering the war-torn Gaza Strip has fallen by 80 percent since the start of the Israeli-US assault on Iran, after Israel closed all border crossings with Gaza, exacerbating the suffering of patients in need of medical treatment and displaced Palestinians.
According to figures reported by Israeli newspaper Haaretz that held by the American-run Civil Military Coordination Center in Kiryat Gat,, before the assault on Iran, the average number of trucks entering the enclave weekly was 4,200. In the first week of the war, this number fell to only 590. In the second week, 1,137 trucks went in and between Sunday and Tuesday, fewer than 400 entered.
