UN Says 61 Trucks Deliver aid in Northern Gaza
On Saturday, the United Nations reported that a total of 61 trucks carrying essential supplies, including medical resources, food, and water, successfully delivered aid to northern Gaza.
The temporary pause in hostilities facilitated the entry of much-needed assistance into the besieged coastal region.
The UN Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA) disclosed that an additional 200 trucks were dispatched from Nitzana, Israel, to the Gaza Strip. By early evening local time, 187 of these trucks had crossed the border.
Among the delivered particulars were eleven ambulances, three trainers, and a flatbed to Al- Shifa sanitarium, which had endured violent conflict in recent days. These coffers are intended to prop in evacuations.

UN says 61 exchanges deliver aid The statement emphasized that the duration of the ceasefire directly influences the quantum of philanthropic aid that can be transported into and across Gaza. The OCHA expressed gratefulness to the Palestinian and Egyptian Red Crescent groups for their backing.
During the antedating day, when a temporary armistice was in effect between Israel and Hamas to grease a hostage and internee exchange, a aggregate of 137 exchanges delivered aid in Gaza, according to the UN.
The OCHA ate the release of further hostages during the armistice and reiterated the call for the immediate and unconditional release of all hostages.
As exchanges continued into early Sunday, Hamas was anticipated to release a aggregate of 50 hostages during the four- day armistice in exchange for 150 Palestinian captures. This agreement was brokered by Qatar, Egypt, and the United States.
UN says 61 exchanges deliver aid The background to the current situation involves Hamas fighters breaking through Gaza’s militarized border with Israel on October 7, landing around 240 people and performing in about 1,200 Israelis and nonnatives being killed, according to Israeli authorities.
In response to this, Israel launched a comprehensive service crusade, including air, ordnance, and nonmilitary hail, along with a ground descent, aiming to strike Hamas. The conflict redounded in the loss of nearly 15,000 lives, generally civilians, including thousands of children, as reported by the Hamas government in Gaza.
