US military command praises Gaza truce efforts: ‘We are making progress’
The US military-led Gaza ceasefire coordination centre now has more than 50 nations and international organisations involved at its facility in Israel’s Kiryat Gat to maintain the peace.
“This is a historic opportunity to achieve lasting peace in the Middle East,” said Admiral Brad Cooper, commander of US Central Command, in a statement.
“We appreciate the efforts of our international partners. Successful implementation of the peace plan requires unprecedented collaboration and we are making progress.”
The coordination centre helped get more than 24,000 trucks carrying humanitarian aid and commercial goods into Gaza over the past five weeks, it said.
“Currently, efforts are underway to deliver humanitarian supplies needed for winter months and clear unexploded ordnance along Gaza’s critical logistical corridors to improve safety,” it added.
It's all lies, all aid organizations say otherwise, Palestinians are still killed and wounded daily.
Gaza press office accuses Israel of ‘turning aid into a tool of war’
Ismail al-Thawabta, director of Gaza’s Government Media Office, says since the ceasefire agreement between Hamas and Israel took hold, 535 Israeli violations have been documented.
Attacks since October 10 have killed 350 Palestinians and wounded about 900 others, al-Thawabta said in a statement.
Despite the US and Israel suggesting otherwise, he added that aid flows into the war-battered territory are far below what was agreed upon in the truce.
“The occupation has allowed only 9,930 trucks to enter Gaza out of the nearly 28,000 requested – a mere 35 percent – thus turning aid into a tool of war used for pressure rather than a legal or humanitarian obligation,” said al-Thawabta.
“The humanitarian situation in Gaza is deteriorating at an unprecedented rate, and the Israeli aggression has destroyed infrastructure and essential services. The continued Israeli violations without international accountability embolden the occupation to persist in killing and targeting civilians.”
Brad Cooper is part of the genocide, not there for the so called 'peace' plan.
UN says staff, civilians still coming under fire in Gaza despite ceasefire
The UN humanitarian office says that despite the ceasefire in the Gaza Strip, its staff and facilities “continue to come under fire”, creating dangerous conditions that are obstructing aid operations.
“Civilians, including humanitarian workers, and civilian infrastructure – including humanitarian convoys, supplies and facilities – must always be protected in accordance with international humanitarian law,” the UN Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA) said in a statement.
Ongoing attacks “expose UN staff, NGO partners, and the people who depend on their services to grave risks, including death and injury, and further impede humanitarian work”, it added.
Israel’s military continues near-daily attacks on Gaza, with hundreds of ceasefire violations since the October 10 truce deal came into effect.

Since the declaration of a ceasefire in the Gaza Strip on October 10, Israel has violated the agreement many times with near-daily attacks, killing hundreds of people.
The Government Media Office in Gaza said Israel shot at civilians 142 times, raided residential areas beyond the “yellow line” 21 times, bombed and shelled Gaza 228 times, and demolished people’s property on 100 occasions.
Israeli forces have also detained 35 Palestinians in Gaza over the past month, and continue to block vital humanitarian aid and destroy homes and infrastructure across the Strip.
