The UNRWA warehouse in Jordan is filled with essential food supplies intended for Gaza, but delivery restrictions imposed by Israel have left them stagnant, threatening expiration. As malnutrition rises, and with Israel only permitting limited new aid distribution, humanitarian efforts are being severely hampered. U.N. officials indicate the situation is worsening as they are increasingly unable to utilize supplies from Jordan and Egypt. The dependence on Jordan as a humanitarian aid hub is jeopardized, with millions of dollars worth of aid stranded at border crossings due to these restrictions and escalating conflict conditions.
The main warehouse of UNRWA, stacked with food for Gaza, is running out of time as expiration dates approach, potentially leading to waste.
Israel's recent mechanisms to allow limited aid into Gaza only underscore the ongoing restrictions preventing larger and more effective humanitarian efforts.
The reliance on Jordan as a humanitarian hub has been complicated by Israel's refusal to allow aid from adjacent countries into Gaza.
U.N. officials have expressed concern over the dire situation in Gaza, noting that restrictions from Israel are severely impairing the delivery of vital aid.
