Gaza: Humanitarian Aid

Question

To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Affairs, what recent assessment her Department has made of the adequacy of the level of humanitarian aid entering Gaza.

Answer

Since the ceasefire, aid flows have increased and more crossings are partially reopened, but the level of need cannot be met unless more restrictions are lifted.

Medical equipment, components for field hospitals and basic shelter items must be allowed to enter to alleviate suffering.

We continue to raise with Israel, the US and regional partners the immediate requirement to lift restrictions on aid.
