TL;DR Summary

Aid delivery to Gaza has been severely limited since the recent conflict, with only a few convoys of trucks able to enter the besieged territory. The situation is becoming increasingly dire for Gaza's population of over 2 million people, with supplies dwindling and hospitals on the brink of collapse. Aid is being delivered through the Rafah crossing between Gaza and Egypt, but the number of trucks allowed in falls far short of the U.N.'s requirements. Fuel, essential for hospitals and water purification, has not been allowed in yet. The U.S. pledged to work with partners to address the fuel shortage, but acknowledged the legitimate concerns about Hamas misusing it. The U.N. warns that Gaza remains under a full power blackout, with hospitals facing shortages of electricity, medicine, and personnel. The need for aid in Gaza is urgent, and the U.S. acknowledged that it is not being delivered fast enough.
