Trucks began moving Friday into the Palestinian enclave, where Israel’s assault has shut off a number of crossings that are crucial for supplies of food, fuel and other aid.
Trucks carrying humanitarian aid began moving ashore into Gaza Friday using a temporary pier built by the United States, delivering desperately needed supplies to the besieged Palestinian enclave.
The floating dock is part of a makeshift effort to stave off a possible famine in Gaza, where Israel’s military assault has shut off a number of crossings that are crucial for supplies of food, fuel and other aid.
Israeli forces pressed on with sweeping operations against Hamas in the north and south of the enclave, while the country’s lawyers defended its ground offensive in Rafah at the United Nations’ top court.
Israel defended its operations in Rafah, saying they were presently “limited,” at the International Court of Justice Friday, in a case brought against South Africa accusing the country of genocide over its Gaza offensive.
Palestinian American doctor Adam Hamawy said aid of all kinds is urgently needed in Rafah, where he has been volunteering at one of the last functioning hospitals in the city amid increasingly worrying circumstances.
Israel has laid blame for delays reopening the Rafah crossing on Egypt, with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu telling CNBC’s Sara Eisen in an interview on Wednesday, “we want to see it open.”
