Several commentators are asserting that large quantities of humanitarian supplies already inside Gaza remain undistributed because United Nations agencies have not collected them. Images and posts circulating on 15 July claim “thousands of pallets” are stacked at Gaza crossings, ready for delivery to civilians. The critics say UN and affiliated relief organisations are instead focusing on requests for additional access, pointing to a UN figure that 10,000 aid trucks are awaiting entry. They argue that distributing the stockpiled consignments could ease immediate shortages inside the enclave. The United Nations has not responded publicly to the allegations, and independent verification of the volume and status of aid inside Gaza was not immediately available.
Picture from today Thousands of pallets of humanitarian aid are already inside Gaza and just need to be picked up and distributed from the crossings by UN agencies and international organizations. However, they prefer to complain instead of actually delivering the aid. https://t.co/UZ51kTdONB
“Gaza is starving” so much that huge piles of humanitarian aid are within Gaza and nobody's coming to pick them up 🙄 https://t.co/t6RgG6gSDx
UN: There are 10,000 trucks of aid waiting to enter Gaza! Reality: There are thousands of pallets of aid ALREADY INSIDE GAZA, waiting for the UN to pick them up. https://t.co/TUjrde9kjM
