bbc.com 1:41 Humanitarian trucks 'a distraction' - UNRWA chief Lazzarini continued with a plea for more aid to be allowed into Gaza. "Gaza is being strangled" and its people "feel shunned, alienated and abandoned", he told the press. Lazzarini said that despite there being intense negotiations to open new humanitarian supply lines, only a "handful of aid convoys" have been allowed in. "Many of us saw in these trucks a glimmer of hope," but they were "a distraction - nothing more than crumbs", he adds. He says the current system is "geared to fail" and to succeed a humanitarian ceasefire is needed. "This should not be too much to ask," Lazzerini said. It "pains me that humanitarian aid is constantly questioned while despair is livestreamed," he adds. "UNRWA does not and will not divert any humanitarian aid into the wrong hands."
