Ceasefire in Gaza Violated: Humanitarian Situation Worsens

Sevinc Kərimova · Siyasət ·

Information has been released regarding the latest situation of the ceasefire agreement violation in Gaza and the worsening humanitarian conditions. According to a statement from the Gaza government, the problems arising from Israel's violation of the ceasefire agreement have been described in detail.

Redaksiya reports that it was emphasized that according to the ceasefire agreement, Israel was supposed to allow 600 aid trucks to enter Gaza daily. However, out of the 42,800 trucks that were supposed to reach Gaza, only 17,819 were able to enter the region, and approximately 26,000 trucks were not permitted to pass. This situation has led to a further deepening of the humanitarian crisis in Gaza.

The statement indicated that 265 of the attacks were direct attacks on civilians, military equipment entered residential areas 49 times, civilians and their homes were attacked 421 times, and civilian institutions were targeted in 150 attacks. These attacks, in addition to violating the fundamental principles of the ceasefire agreement, have endangered the lives of the Gaza population. Israel's violation of the ceasefire in this manner has caused "a continuation of the shortage of food, medicine, water, and fuel, and a deepening of the catastrophic humanitarian crisis in the Gaza Strip."

According to the information, Israel has violated the agreement 875 times since the ceasefire began on October 10th, with 411 Palestinians killed and 1112 injured in these attacks. Contrary to the agreement in Gaza, an average of 244 aid trucks entered daily, meeting only 41 percent of the required aid. This figure illustrates how critical the humanitarian situation in the region is.

It should be recalled that the ceasefire came into effect on the same day in the Gaza Strip, after the Israeli army withdrew to the "Yellow Line" as specified in the agreement. On October 9th, during ongoing negotiations in Egypt, Donald Trump announced that Hamas and Israel had approved the first phase of the ceasefire plan in Gaza. The agreement was signed in Egypt, where the negotiations were taking place, and came into effect on October 10th with the approval of the Israeli government.
