The United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees (UNRWA) stated that almost all agricultural lands in Gaza have been destroyed or are inaccessible.

UNRWA explained that families who once relied on farming for their livelihoods now have no source of income due to the destruction of their lands or the inability to reach them. It added that residents are unable to buy food from the markets, underscoring the urgent need to bring in humanitarian aid until Gaza’s agricultural sector can recover.

Meanwhile, the Government Media Office in Gaza announced that 480 aid trucks entered the Gaza Strip, bringing the total number of trucks that have entered since the ceasefire took effect on October 10 to 653 trucks. The agreement stipulates the entry of 600 humanitarian aid trucks daily, including fuel and cooking gas.
