World Food Programme (WFP) representative and country director for Palestine, Antoine Renard, on Saturday, said the agency needs to get in 62,000 metric tonnes of aid every month into the Gaza Strip, Aj Jazzerra reported.
“In the last two months, we’ve been bringing more volume into Gaza, but it was insufficient. We were covering only 40-45 percent of the staple food that was in Gaza … We need now to have the full 62,000 metric tonnes getting every month into the Gaza Strip,” Renard said.
“What is most important now for us to reach the north is crossings to be opened,” he said.
