870 aid trucks sitting in Gaza and none of the "humanitarians" are picking them up

New humanitarian aid crossing:
-A new humanitarian aid crossing Into Gaza - the Kissufim crossing - started operating yesterday. This is part of our effort and commitment to increase the volume and routes of aid to Gaza. The aid enters Gaza after security checks at the Kerem Shalom Crossing.

Aid trucks entry:
-115 humanitarian aid trucks entered Gaza yesterday, 68 through Kerem Shalom, 32 via Erez, and 15 via the newly opened Kissufim crossing.
-The trucks carried food, shelter equipment and medical supplies, including dialysis machines and water sanitation equipment.

Aid Collection:
Yesterday, only 41 trucks were collected from the Gazan side of Kerem Shalom by international organizations. Approx. 870 trucks worth of aid are waiting for collection.

Why are so many trucks not being picked up?

A COGAT newsletter from last week describes efforts that IDF is making to help the NGOs, information that goes virtually unreported:

Alternative and Dedicated Humanitarian Routes: Israel is constantly working to allow and facilitate aid organizations to transfer humanitarian aid within the Gaza Strip. For example, COGAT worked together with international organizations to facilitate the creation of humanitarian routes and alternative pathways within Gaza that would allow the continued coordination and flow of aid trucks within Gaza. A major route has been expanded to secure transport from northern to central Gaza, even during active, targeted operations. Additionally, subject to operational considerations, attempts are made to implement, on an almost daily basis, tactical pauses along certain routes, allowing for safer movement and facilitating that aid convoys reach their destinations without interference, as well as daily humanitarian pauses in various areas.

Bottlenecks in Aid Collection: At the Kerem Shalom crossing, logistical constraints by the UN agencies have created bottlenecks of aid waiting to be collected and distributed within Gaza. In response, Israel facilitated the entry of additional empty trucks to assist with faster loading and facilitated the entry of forklifts to expedite aid handling.

Assisting aid organizations with overcoming criminality: Israel has taken measures to allow and facilitate the collection of aid by the UN despite criminal elements attempting to loot aid trucks. Measures include coordinating collection from the crossing during various hours, including at night, paving alternative routes, increasing the fence road option to deliver aid directly into central Gaza, and other measures taken by the IDF against the looters.

This is only part of what the IDF is doing to help bring in aid to the people who need it - and not to Hamas. Who reports that they are paving roads to help with aid transportation?

Israel opened up the Kissufim crossing which is closer to central Gaza. But it appears to be window dressing to make the Americans happy, because the aid that was already entering Gaza was not getting distributed. Adding more crossings only marginally helps get the aid to the people who need it.

Israel cannot go the last mile to directly bring the aid to the people who need it - that's the job of the UN and other organizations. They are dropping the ball.

The IDF is doing far more than any news media is reporting. The newsletter describes many more activities that no one else mentions.

Worse, while there are daily meetings between Israel and the UN organizations to coordinate humanitarian pauses, routes, aid transfer, planning for winter needs, expanding humanitarian zones and much more, the NGOs sit back and blame Israel for things that they are responsible for.

As always, the NGOs and reporters write all their stories from the perspective that Jews are intending to murder and hurt as many Gaza civilians as possible. None of that is true, and every issue of the COGAT newsletter proves it. It is a fundamentally antisemitic assumption, and it is what drives more Jew-hatred worldwide.

Is it too much to ask the media to report fairly? Is it too much to ask humanitarian organizations to treat Israel as a partner and not a bloodthirsty genocidal wa rmachine?

Apparently, for today's blood libelers, it is.
