However, truck owners involved in the food deliveries, mostly Egyptian hauliers, are reluctant to let their vehicles be used inside Gaza for fear of them bombed or ransacked by starving Gazans. There is also a shortage of willing drivers after repeated incidents of aid trucks coming under fire, of which the WCK bombing has been the worst but far from an isolated incident.
The planned coordination centre, whenever it is finished, may not be sufficient to address this fundamental obstacle to delivering food, as long as much of Gaza is a free fire zone, aid workers argue.
The only way Biden will care about Gaza is if he believes it could cost him the election in November. All the people who say we must vote for Biden no matter what are undermining the only leverage we have to end this before hundreds of thousands of innocent people die before our eyes.
