Israeli, US aid truck statistics 'a complete lie': Media office

Apr 21, 2024

Gaza [Palestine], April 21: The government media office in Gaza has said the total number of aid trucks entering the Gaza Strip on a daily basis ranges, on average, between 130 and 150 trucks.
In a press release, the media office said the Israeli "narrative" adopted by the United States that there are around 300 aid trucks entering the Gaza Strip daily "is a complete lie and a falsification of reality".
The office said that the areas in northern Gaza are still suffering from a real food crisis and that the only way to stop the famine in northern Gaza and address the food crisis across the whole enclave is to open all crossings.
Since the start of April, no more than 2,800 trucks have entered the enclave, according to the media office. "The occupation deliberately lies about the humanitarian reality inside the Gaza Strip, and has been promoting a false narrative for some time about improvements in the mechanism of bringing aid in and increasing the number of trucks entering the Strip," the statement read.
