US urges Israel to 'do more' in allowing aid to Gaza

Alternate Representative of the United States of America for Special Political Affairs in the United Nations Robert Wood urged Israel to "do more" to allow the entrance of humanitarian aid to the Gaza Strip.

In a statement published, Wood emphasized that border crossings must remain open, without obstruction from the Israeli side, and that the Middle Eastern country must "facilitate the opening of additional crossings to meet humanitarian needs at scale, and to support the rapid, safe delivery of relief items to vulnerable people in all of Gaza."

Earlier, the World Food Programme said that efforts to prevent a famine in the war zone are not enough and that the organization was forced to stop the food supply in the north of Gaza as the situation is worsening. Palestinians killed in the area are nearing 30,000 while those wounded rose to 70,215 in the latest report.
