As many of Gaza's more than 2.3 million people desperately wait for humanitarian assistance and food to reach them, aid trucks are being violently ransacked before getting to their destination, say international organizations.

Nearly a hundred aid trucks were looted in southern Gaza on Saturday in what the UN agency for Palestinian refugees has described as “one of the worst” incidents of its kind.

UNRWA, the main U.N. agency aiding Palestinians, said its drivers were forced at gunpoint to unload supplies in what it called one of the worst such incidents of the war.

These groups operate in areas that are under Israeli military control. The main entry point for aid, the Kerem Abu Salem or Kerem Shalom crossing, is located in the south, in a part of Gaza that Israeli forces took over in May. It is there where most of the pillaging occurs — sometimes just hundreds of meters away from Israeli forces.

Leaders of the world’s 20 major economies called for a global pact to combat hunger, more aid to war-torn Gaza and an end to hostilities in the Mideast and Ukraine, issuing a joint declaration that was heavy on generalities but short of details on how to accomplish those goals.
