1.8 million tons of supplies delivered to Gaza since war began
“The U.N. must stop acting like only aid delivered through its own channels qualifies as humanitarian assistance."
(June 2, 2025 / JNS)
In the nearly 20 months since some 6,000 Hamas-led Gazan terrorists invaded Israel on Oct. 7, 2023, the Jewish state has facilitated the delivery of close to 1.8 million tons of aid to the Strip, including 1.3 million tons of food, Israel said this weekend.
The figures were released amid warnings of “imminent famine” in the Strip by international aid agencies led by the U.N., alongside criticism of the U.S.-backed Gaza Humanitarian Foundation that was launched a week ago to distribute aid in Gaza that circumvents Hamas.
The 1.8 million tons of aid was delivered in more than 90,000 trucks and 10,000 pallets, COGAT, the Israeli defense body in charge of coordinating aid to Gaza, said. The vast majority was transferred via land crossings while nearly 10,000 tons was sent via the sea and more than 7,000 tons was delivered by air.
During the Jan. 19-March 18 hostage-release ceasefire earlier this year, more than 25,000 aid trucks entered Gaza carrying some 450,000 tons of aid, COGAT said.

Why is no one talking about the lack of hunger in eastern Rafah?
The answer is simple: Hamas is not currently operating there. And no Hamas means no suffering.

The Wall Street Journalon July 25 was a column that brutally exposes the false narratives surrounding the situation in Gaza. This piece was not written by a Jewish, pro-Israel activist, academic or politician. It was written by Yasser Abu Shabab, the leader of an anti-Hamas militia inside Gaza called the Popular Forces,
alternatively known as “Anti-Terror Service,” which is fighting to wrest control away from Hamas.
In his column, “Gazans are finished with Hamas,” he shared that the Popular Forces currently control eastern Rafah in southern Gaza.
For the past seven weeks under their rule, he writes, “people have access to shelter, food, water and basic medical supplies—all without fear of Hamas stealing aid or being caught in the crossfire with the Israeli military.” He adds that in eastern Rafah, there are “no more airstrike casualties, no chaotic aid lines, no evacuation orders and no fear of booby-trapped homes or children being used as human shields by Hamas.”
