Palestinian officials: Limited amount of food and medicine entering Gaza

A total of 20 trucks are entering Gaza with a limited supply of medicines, medical supplies and a small amount of food (canned goods), the Palestinian government media office has said. 

The Gaza-based office warned earlier that the aid convoy - the first to be allowed entry into Gaza in two weeks - was not enough to "change the humanitarian catastrophe that the Gaza Strip is experiencing".

Israel has cut off food, water, electricity and fuel to Gaza since the Hamas-led attack on 7 October, with human rights organisations accusing Israel of collective punishment.
