Israel May Slash Gaza Aid After Trump Takes Office
The United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs earlier appealed to the body’s Security Council to end the "humanitarian catastrophe" in Gaza.
Tel Aviv considers cutting humanitarian aid to the Gaza Strip after US President-elect Donald Trump enters office, an unnamed Israeli official has been cited by CNN as saying.
"The humanitarian aid is not reaching the right hands," the official claimed, in an apparent nod to the Palestinian militant group Hamas. The source added that limiting aid to deprive Hamas of resources was one of "several" options currently being considered.

UN, Israel at Odds Over Gaza Aid Trucks
The claims come after the United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA) said that only 2,205 aid trucks had entered Gaza in December.
Israel insists that more than 5,000 such vehicles arrived in the Palestinian enclave last month, whereas the OCHA says at least 91% of the Gaza population are facing high levels of acute food insecurity. Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov, in turn, cited hundreds of tons of aid that Moscow had delivered to Gaza earlier.
In October, the Biden administration argued that Israel had allegedly made some good but limited progress in terms of increasing the flow of humanitarian aid to Gaza, which is why Washington won’t limit arms supplies to Israel as the White House had pledged if the situation had not improved.
US Alarmed Over Gaza Aid Restrictions
Relief groups, however, said that the aid-related situation is worse than ever in the Gaza war. Since the escalation of
the Palestinian-Israeli conflict in October 2023, the Jewish state slapped severe restrictions on crossings into Gaza, blocking essential goods and limiting humanitarian aid.
UN Deputy Secretary-General Amina Mohammed expressed deep concern over
the aid restriction, describing the flow of supplies to Gaza as "outrageously" insufficient. "Aid by exception is neither humane nor effective," she underscored.
At least 59 more Palestinians have been killed in
Israeli attacks in Gaza over the last 24 hours, bringing the Palestinians’ death toll to 45,717, according to Hamas-run Health Ministry.
