The Gaza Strip faces a severe humanitarian crisis as aid deliveries are increasingly looted. UN Secretary-General António Guterres's office reports that aid intended for civilians is being systematically plundered by armed groups.

This rampant looting severely hampers life-saving efforts and endangers aid workers. In one incident, a UN aid convoy was robbed near the Karem Abu Salem crossing, highlighting the lawlessness in the region.

Security forces reportedly killed over 20 suspected gang members involved in such activities. A report suggests that some gangs might have passive or active support from Israeli forces, though this is unverified.

The World Health Organization and other humanitarian groups express grave concerns over the situation, noting the difficulties in delivering aid to the needy. The ongoing conflict, triggered by a Hamas attack on Israel in October 2023, has only worsened the situation, leaving the population in dire need of assistance.

Meanwhile, the international community urges for improved humanitarian conditions in Gaza.
