The United Nations World Food Programme (WFP) has temporarily suspended its operations in Gaza after one of its clearly marked vehicles was struck by at least ten bullets while approaching an Israeli military checkpoint at the Wadi Gaza bridge. Despite receiving multiple clearances from Israeli authorities, the vehicle was attacked, but no injuries were reported among the staff. This incident, which is currently under investigation by the Israeli military, underscores the increasing risks faced by humanitarian workers in Gaza. WFP Executive Director Cindy McCain has called for immediate action to ensure the safety of aid workers, citing the failure of the current deconfliction system. The U.N. Security Council is set to meet to discuss the humanitarian situation in Gaza, which has been severely impacted by ongoing hostilities and restricted aid operations.
