Since the beginning of the Israeli operation in Gaza:

  • 53,647 tons of humanitarian supplies have been transferred to Gaza in 2,084 trucks. Also, 3,162,351 liters of fuel have been conveyed through Nahal Oz and Kerem Shalom.
  • 681 dual nationals were evacuated from Gaza.
  • 3000 units of blood were donated by Jordan.
  • 5 ambulances donated by Turkey.
  • 15 ambulances transferred from the West Bank on behalf of the Palestinian Red Crescent Society.
  • 68 people evacuated to Israel for medical treatment, including two injured children.
  • Numerous infrastructural repairs have taken place - sewage, water and electricity.

The Defense Ministry has begun to operate a live feed of the Kerem Shalom cargo crossing into Gaza throughout the hours of the terminal's operation. It includes three cameras showing the points of access and exit of the terminal.

If you believe that Israel does everything that it can to starve the people of Gaza and deprive them of humanitarian aid, see this page. Also see a video about the aid delivered.
