The White House said nearly 15,000 trucks carrying commercial goods and humanitarian aid have entered Gaza since October 10, following a ceasefire between Israel and Hamas, but Palestinians and aid groups have sharply disputed the figures, Al Jazeera reported on Monday. White House spokesperson Dylan Johnson told the news channel that an average of 674 trucks have entered Gaza daily since the truce took effect. He said humanitarian teams “have reached more than one million people with household food parcels” and that meal production in Gaza has risen 82% since late September.
Eggs appeared on shelves in Gaza for the first time since February,” Johnson added, referring to the period when Israel imposed a total blockade on humanitarian supplies. “The United States is leading a historic effort to address the critical needs of Gazans right now,” he said, insisting the administration is committed to treating Palestinians “with dignity and respect.” Despite US claims, aid workers on the ground say conditions in Gaza remain severe, with many families struggling to access food, water, and medical supplies.
