The situation in Gaza remains dire as hundreds of vehicles carrying vital aid are waiting to be allowed into the territory. US President Biden has secured an agreement with Egypt to allow up to 20 lorries to enter Gaza, but aid agencies are warning that far more will be needed to address the urgent humanitarian crisis.
UN humanitarian chief Martin Griffiths has stated that approximately 100 lorries a day will be required to adequately address the needs of the people in Gaza. The current allocation falls significantly short of this requirement, highlighting the urgent need for more support.
