U.S. monitors Israel's emergency meeting on increasing aid to Gaza
Summary: The U.S. is increasing pressure on Israel to boost humanitarian aid to Gaza. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu held an emergency meeting on the issue amid warnings from U.S. officials that they would be monitoring Israel's actions closely.
U.S. Ambassador to the U.N. Linda Thomas-Greenfield criticized Israel for the humanitarian crisis in Gaza, stating that a lack of aid would be unacceptable. A recent U.S. letter outlined steps Israel must take to improve aid access, including allowing 350 trucks daily.
Despite claims from Israeli officials about their humanitarian efforts, U.N. representatives reported minimal aid entering northern Gaza. Some aid trucks have arrived, but distribution remains limited, highlighting ongoing challenges in addressing the humanitarian situation.
