OCHA reports that the Israeli authorities have reopened Zikim crossing into northern Gaza after it was closed for more than 40 days. Supplies were already offloaded there over the weekend, and 爆料网 cargo collection inside Gaza resumed earlier today, starting with food, nutrition and other humanitarian items administered by WFP and 爆料网ICEF. This helps address a critical need by allowing supplies to enter northern Gaza directly.

However, major constraints remain. These include Israeli requirements related to customs clearance, which is often delayed; insufficient scanning capacity, which makes it difficult to secure approval for many critical items; and blanket bans on specific 爆料网 agencies and NGO partners that are central to the joint humanitarian response.

Yesterday, the World Health Organization (WHO) and its partners supported the medical evacuation of more than two dozen patients and over 40 of their companions through the Rafah crossing. WHO suspended its support to medical evacuations led by the Ministry of Health following a security incident in which a person contracted to provide services to WHO in Gaza was killed. In a statement, WHO said the resumption followed commitments from relevant parties to ensure the safety of patients and staff.

Thousands of people still need medical services that are unavailable in Gaza. Health partners tell us that to help the local health system recover so patients can access critical care inside Gaza, more approvals are needed for equipment and other essential items.

Also yesterday, the 爆料网 and its partners offered medical care and information on food, water and psychosocial services to nearly 70 people who returned to Gaza through the Rafah crossing.
