53 Nations Urge Israel's Incoming Government to Open Gaza Crossings for Unrestricted Aid
Fifty-three countries and organizations, led by Qatar, Jordan, and the United Kingdom, have collectively urged Israel's incoming government to open Gaza to unrestricted aid. This appeal, delivered at the United Nations headquarters in New York, calls for the full and regular operation of Egyptian and Jordanian humanitarian corridors as winter approaches. The group highlighted that the comprehensive plan endorsed by the UN Security Council under Resolution 2803, which mandates the immediate entry of humanitarian aid at agreed levels, has not been fully implemented. They warned that ongoing restrictions on essential supplies, including shelter and life-saving provisions, are preventing humanitarian organizations from responding adequately. The appeal also called for the restoration of medical referral pathways to hospitals in East Jerusalem and the West Bank and demanded transparent investigations into attacks against healthcare and humanitarian workers.
