On Friday, Hamas said he agreed significant parts of the United States’s peace proposal, including the release of all live and dead Israeli hostages, in exchange for Palestinian prisoners.
One of the US proposals is for the entry and distribution of help to Gaza Proceed “without interference from the two parts through the United Nations and their agencies and the red crescent.”
Waiting for a green light
Mr. Dujarric said in response to the questions that the UN is “ready to start as soon as we get the green light … There are thousands of metric tons in the portfolio of products ready to enter.”
According to reports, Qatar and Egyptian negotiators hold meetings with delegations from Israel and Hamas in Sharm el-Sheikh on Monday night, such as the hopes of a possible end of the conflict that began exactly two years ago with the terrorist attacks led by Hamas against communities in southern Israel.
Israeli attacks in Gaza have continued despite a call from the president of the United States, Donald Trump, to stop his bombing campaign. Local health authorities reported that 21 Palestinians had been killed on Sunday, with 96 injured.
The UN Coordination Office, Ocha, reports a reduction in air attacks in recent days, but bombings and shots have continued.
Emergency funds released
Mr. Dujarric said that the UN emergency relief coordinator, Tom Fletcher, had assigned $ 9 million on Monday of the Central Emergency Response Fund (CERF) to guarantee adequate fuel supplies to maintain the services that save life.
“Access and humanitarian movement through the strip are still challenging,” Dujarric continued.
“Yesterday, eight missions that required coordination with the Israeli authorities were provided, but six other missions denied, and five had to be canceled by the organizers.”
Bakeries that work flat
The World Food Program (WFP) has been able to deliver wheat flour to bakeries this month, which “are currently working up to 22 hours a day and producing some 100,000 bread packages a day. ”
The UN partners and the humanitarians prepared and distributed a total of 885,000 meals through 167 kitchens in Gaza on Saturday. However, only 12 kitchens are operating in the north.
“We and our partners emphasize the need for non -stubborn and sustained access to all parts of Gaza so that help can reach people, wherever they are“The UN spokesman said.
Displacement sites and shelters in the south are overcrowded, which leads some families to stay in garbage dumping sites such as Al Amal, where about 70 tents have been established in recent days.
Ocha emphasized that UN teams and partners continue to do everything possible to meet people’s urgent needs throughout the strip, despite the current violence, limited supplies and restricted access.
