Thirteen aid trucks entered the Gaza Strip from Egypt, according to a CNN reporter.

Eighty-one trucks are currently undergoing security checks by Israeli authoritiesaccording to an Egyptian official stationed at the border.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s office said in a statement that humanitarian aid provides Israel “significant margin of action for the realization of the objectives of the war”.

“These are food and medicines that have been checked and inspected by Israeli security personnel and are being delivered through Egypt,” he added.

The total number of trucks that have passed through Gaza so far has reached 157.

The humanitarian situation in Gaza has worsened significantly due to the restriction of food, water, electricity and fuel. In total 26 aid trucks passed through the Rafah crossing in Gaza yesterday Monday, the Palestinian Red Crescent announced.

WHO: Public health disaster looming in Gaza

The World Health Organization warns that looming “public health catastrophe” in Gaza.

As we mentioned earlier, water, food and fuel are in short supply, as the blockade of Israel continues. Hospitals are also running out of medicine and electricity.

WHO representative Christian Lindmeier argues that “it’s an impending public health disaster looming with mass displacement, overcrowding, damage to water and sanitation infrastructure.”

He also called for fuel to be allowed into Gaza to enable a water desalination plant to operate.

Unicef ​​is also sounding the alarm, which focuses on children and claims that infant deaths caused by dehydration are “a growing threat”. The organization’s spokesman, James Elder, also said during a press conference in Geneva that children get sick from drinking salty, untreated water.
