Aid supply ship from Cyprus reaches Gaza coast

Aid supply ship from Cyprus reaches Gaza coast
A ship towing a barge loaded with food arrived off Gaza on Friday, witnesses said, as a test run for a new aid route by sea from Cyprus into the devastated Palestinian enclave where famine looms after five months of Israel's military campaign.
The ship, arranged by the World Central Kitchen (WCK) charity, is carrying nearly 200 tonnes of aid to be delivered via a jetty being prepared in Gaza. A second ship is expected to sail soon.
There are few details on how the aid delivery and distribution will work once it is ready to unload in Gaza.
UN relief agencies have described considerable obstacles to getting relief supplies to those in need.
If the new sea route is successful, it may help to ease the hunger crisis affecting Gaza, where much of the population faces malnourishment and hospitals in the worst-stricken northern areas have reported children dying of starvation.
However, aid agencies have repeatedly said that more than bringing in aid by sea and through airdrops will be needed to compensate for difficulties getting supplies by land.
The war in Gaza began on October 7 when Hamas fighters rampaged into Israel, killing 1,200 people and seizing 253 hostages, according to Israeli tallies.
Israel's air and ground campaign has since killed more than 31,000 Palestinians, according to health authorities in Hamas-run Gaza, while driving most of the population from their homes and pushing the enclave towards famine.
