Overview
- Gaza’s authorities report 19,764 of 48,000 agreed aid trucks entered during the ceasefire, averaging about 250 per day compared with the 600 they say are needed.
- Only 425 of 4,000 fuel trucks were allowed in over the same period, a shortfall they say has crippled power for health care, bakeries, and water and sanitation systems.
- The Gaza government alleges 969 truce violations by Israeli forces and says 418 Palestinians have been killed and 1,141 wounded since October 10, with four additional deaths reported in the past 48 hours.
- Officials in Gaza estimate 1.5 million people are displaced and cite deaths linked to collapsing damaged buildings and cold exposure as winter conditions intensify and shelter materials are restricted.
- Hamas rejected any forced-expulsion plan and condemned Israel’s recognition of Somaliland, and Israel says Benjamin Netanyahu will meet Donald Trump on December 29, a date the White House has not confirmed.
