No aid has been distributed in Gaza, UN says | BBC News

The UN says no aid has yet been distributed in Gaza despite aid lorries starting to cross the border after an 11‑week blockade. Israeli officials said 93 trucks entered Gaza on Tuesday, carrying aid including flour, baby food, medical equipment, and pharmaceutical drugs. However, the UN noted that despite trucks reaching the Palestinian side of the Kerem Shalom crossing, no aid has been distributed so far. Israel agreed on Sunday to allow a basic amount of food to enter Gaza, where global experts have warned of a looming famine. International pressure on Israel has continued to grow, with the UK saying it would suspend trade talks over what it described as Israel's morally unjustifiable military escalation in Gaza.
