United Nations Secretary-General António Guterres said on Friday that humanitarian aid in the Gaza Strip is witnessing “total chaos and chaos.”

At a press conference in New York, Guterres stressed the need for a “mechanism that ensures a minimum order” to facilitate the distribution of aid.

He explained, "The situation in Gaza has become a state of chaos, as most of the trucks loaded with humanitarian aid are being looted."

He added: "Unlike traditional war, where the occupation forces ensure the security and management of the territories they control, the conflict in Gaza is characterized by continuous attacks and bombings."

Guterres said that there is "total chaos in Gaza, and there is no authority in most areas."

He stressed that "Israel does not even allow the so-called blue police to accompany our convoys, because they are police linked to the local administration."

Guterres stressed, "The chaos has made the distribution of aid inside Gaza very difficult."

He added, "The problem does not lie only in bringing things (aid) to Gaza, but rather in the need for a mechanism that guarantees a minimum of law and order to facilitate the distribution of aid."

Guterres stressed, "The ceasefire is absolutely necessary in order to properly organize and implement the plan (to distribute aid)."

Regarding the Israeli military attack on northern Gaza and on the displaced people near Rafah, Guterres said that the military operation has a “major impact on civilians and does not solve any problem.”

On Thursday, the United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs said in press statements that a number of families in the southern Gaza Strip eat “one meal every two or three days,” while other families rely on “sharing food” with each other.
