Some Flour Reaches Gaza as Blockade Eases, with Aid Groups Calling for More

On Friday, hundreds of Gazans crowded a bakery in Nuseirat Camp after limited flour arrived following an 11-week Israeli blockade on Gaza.
Israel halted all aid deliveries in March but recently allowed limited aid trucks through Kerem Shalom Crossing amid international pressure to ease the blockade.
Aid shipments included flour, baby food, and medical supplies, but many trucks remain stuck at the border, while looting and insecurity hinder effective distribution inside Gaza.
UN Secretary-General Guterres called the aid flow 'a teaspoon of aid when a flood is required,' with the UN estimating 500 aid trucks per day needed for Gaza's 2.3 million people.
Aid groups warn the current limited deliveries cannot prevent worsening famine and insecurity, urging increased, sustained aid to avoid more starvation deaths in Gaza.
