ROME, January 19, 2025 (WAFA) – The World Food Program said on Sunday evening that its trucks carrying food parcels have begun crossing into the Gaza Strip.
This came in a post on the UN program's account on X after the ceasefire in the Gaza Strip came into effect.
The UN program said: "WFP trucks started crossing into Gaza via Zikim and Kerem Shalom crossings. The first trucks carried life-saving wheat flour and ready-to-eat food parcels for people in desperate need."
It noted that "this ceasefire is critical for the humanitarian response. Safety, and access must be ensured."
