No aid has entered besieged areas of northern Gaza, says Palestinian journalist

Palestinian journalist Anas al-Sharif said on X that there hasn't been a single truck of aid entering the areas of northern Gaza currently besieged by Israel's military.

Sharif's tweet comes after Israel announced that it permitted 50 aid trucks to enter northern Gaza from Jordan. Earlier this week, the US warned Israel to boost aid into Gaza or risk a reassessment of US military support.

"I categorically confirm that no truck will enter the besieged areas, including Jabalia camp, Jabalia al-Balad, Jabalia al-Nazla, Beit Hanoun, and Beit Lahia," Sharif said.

"The aid that was brought in was directed only to the south of Gaza City and for propaganda and media purposes, as no truck has reached the besieged areas since the military operation in northern Gaza began."

أؤكد بشكل قاطع عدم دخول أي شاحنة إلى المناطق المحاصرة، بما في ذلك مخيم جباليا، جباليا البلد، جباليا النزلة، بيت حانون، وبيت لاهيا.
ما تم إدخاله من مساعدات كان موجهاً فقط إلى…
