Speaking at a press conference at the Al-Ahli Baptist Hospital in Gaza City, Salama Marouf, head of the Gaza Government Media Office, said that “despite 20 days passing since the agreement, the humanitarian situation remains catastrophic due to Israeli obstruction.”
He explained that “the agreement mandates the daily entry of 600 aid trucks, including 50 fuel trucks, alongside the provision of 60,000 mobile housing units, 200,000 tents, generators, spare parts, solar panels, and materials for rebuilding Gaza.”
He added that “the deal also includes removing debris, rehabilitating health facilities, bakeries, and infrastructure, and ensuring the movement of patients and the injured through the Rafah crossing.”
However, according to Marouf, only 8,500 trucks have entered Gaza since Jan. 19 -- far below the 12,000 expected under the agreement.
He said the majority of these trucks contain food packages, fruits, and vegetables, while critical aid such as shelter supplies and medical equipment is being deliberately delayed.
Marouf highlighted that “just 10% of the required tents have entered Gaza, and Israel has not allowed a single mobile housing unit to be delivered.”
Regarding fuel, he stated that only 15 trucks enter daily instead of the agreed 50, which severely impacts hospitals and essential public services.
