"The Kerem Shalom/Karam Abu Salem (KS/KAS) crossing is largely inoperable, allowing only limited items like wheat flour and food parcels on an exceptional basis. Much of the aid remains inaccessible due to a significant backlog in Gaza's staging areas. Aid cargo through KS/KAS has decreased by over 80% in the last three months, falling from an average of 127 trucks per day in April to just 23 in July. When attempting to move aid into and within Gaza, Palestinian aid trucks continue to be rejected at checkpoints by Israeli forces, leaving them vulnerable to instances of looting, as desperation for aid increases. Together with extreme risks due to bombardment and hostilities, these frequent movement denials and the ensuing lack of safety have deterred many Palestinian truck drivers from delivering aid. Only 30 trucks carrying critically needed items such as non-food essentials, water and sanitation supplies, medical supplies, and specialised malnutrition treatments-are transported along a fenced road to Gate 96. They face numerous security threats, including bombings, looting, and clashes, all exacerbated by the extreme deprivation caused by severe access restrictions."
