WFP urgently calls for unrestricted Gaza access to deliver essential aid.
Cindy McCain, WFP executive director, warns of less than a week’s food supply.

Supplies are delayed at Rafah border crossing with Egypt.

The UN World Food Programme (WFP) is urging for “comprehensive and unrestricted access” to the Gaza Strip to ensure crucial humanitarian assistance reaches its civilian population.

Cindy McCain, executive director, says the WFP has “less than a week of food left” in the densely-populated enclave with supplies continuing to be held up at the Rafah border crossing with Egypt.

“People are going to die unless we can gain access,” she warns, adding that the organisation hoped tomorrow would see their trucks make the crossing.

The head of the aid organization stated that WFP takes every possible measure to ensure that food reaches its intended recipients, preventing it from falling into the wrong hands.
