Muhannad Hadi, head of aid operations in Gaza and West Bank, says he's 'very happy' with first days of shipments amid ceasefire, but only 3.6% of 2025 funding goal met so far

Funding shortages may affect the U.N.'s ability to maintain aid flows at target levels throughout the Gaza ceasefire deal, a U.N. official told Reuters. Fifteen months of war has left more than 47,000 Palestinians dead and most of Gaza in ruins,

Since a six-week ceasefire between Israel and Palestinian militant organization Hamas came into force on Sunday, more and more aid has been reaching the Gaza Strip, according to the UN's Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA).
