The Government Media Office in Gaza has said only 1,210 aid trucks entered Gaza over the past 14 days, Al Jazeera reports.

Officials said this represents just 14 per cent of the territory’s actual needs — a total of 8,400 trucks.

Aid groups have been seeking the entry of at least 600 trucks daily to address the dire humanitarian crisis in Gaza caused by Israel’s curbs on aid delivery.

The majority of trucks, they added, were “subjected to looting and robbery amidst the artificial security chaos pursued by the Israeli occupation, as part of a systematic policy of ‘engineering starvation and chaos’, with the aim of breaking the will of the Palestinian people and undermining their steadfastness”.
