Hey everyone! Did you hear about what’s happening in Gaza? After a long wait, trucks full of food and medicine are finally entering Gaza to help people in need! 🌟
For 11 weeks, supplies couldn’t get into Gaza, making life really hard for the people living there. Imagine if your local grocery store ran out of food for that long—that would be tough, right?
On Monday and Tuesday, Israel allowed 98 trucks to bring in things like flour (that’s used to make bread 🍞), baby food 🍼, and medical equipment 🏥. But here’s the tricky part: even though the trucks got into Gaza, the supplies haven’t reached the people yet.
Mr. Antoine Renard from the World Food Program said, “None of this aid has reached the Gaza population.” That means many families are still waiting for food and help.
Lots of food and other important things are still waiting near the borders, but they can’t get to the people until it’s safe to do so. About a quarter of the people in Gaza are at risk of not having enough to eat. 😟
At the same time, there’s been fighting in the area. Hundreds of people have been affected, and many countries are asking for the fighting to stop so that everyone can be safe.
The leader of Israel, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, said they might agree to a temporary pause in fighting to help get hostages back. But they also want to continue their efforts to control the area fully.
Many countries like Britain, France, and Canada are worried about what’s happening. They said that if Israel doesn’t stop the fighting and allow more help into Gaza, they might take more actions.
Even within Israel, some people are saying the fighting should stop. A leader named Yair Golan said that continued fighting could make Israel look bad to other countries.
Most people agree that they want peace and for everyone to be safe. Let’s hope that things get better soon and that all the people in Gaza get the help they need! 💕
