Gaza, MINA – The World Health Organization (WHO) has called for an immediate and sustained flow of humanitarian aid into Gaza, warning that lives are at risk as 22,000 aid trucks remain stranded at border crossings due to Israel’s blockade.

WHO Director-General Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus said on Sunday that the survival of Gaza’s population depends on direct access to essential supplies. Since August 1, WHO has managed to deliver 24 trucks carrying medicines and medical supplies to hospitals and clinics in Gaza.

The Gaza Media Office (GMO) accused Israel of deliberately engineering starvation by preventing aid from entering and demanded the immediate release of all trucks and the permanent reopening of all crossings.

Fuel shortages have crippled hospitals, forcing doctors to treat only the most critical cases. Egyptian media reported that two fuel trucks were preparing to enter Gaza, though their arrival remains unconfirmed.

Since the start of Israel’s US-backed genocide on October 7, 2023, more than 210,000 Palestinians have been killed or wounded, most of them women and children, with over 10,000 still missing. Starvation has claimed at least 175 lives, including 93 children.

GMO also rejected the US- and Israel-backed Gaza Humanitarian Foundation, launched in May, saying it aims to displace civilians and facilitate renewed occupation under the guise of aid distribution.[]
