There are four @WCKitchen warehouses in Jordan filled with food for the people of Gaza….rice, oil, flour, vegetables…over 100 trucks loaded and ready to arrive to the border crossing in less than an hour. We have hundreds more trucks ready to bring cooking supplies and more food, but still the government of Israel is not permitting us to enter with aid.
We have been cooking and feeding in Gaza at a huge scale for more than 19 months. More than 130 million meals! For months, Israel has not allowed any aid to enter…we have been forced to shut down of our community kitchens and bakeries. We have no food left…but we are ready at any moment to start cooking again. Many innocent families are desperate to eat. Let us feed the people of Gaza!
Ante la actividad del #VolcánDeFuego, recomendamos a las autoridades departamentales y municipales:
Identificar y habilitar los centros que considere necesarios para la atención y resguardo de la población.
Mantener el constante monitoreo en su jurisdicción y competencia.
We are heartbroken to share that a vehicle carrying World Central Kitchen colleagues was hit by an Israeli airstrike in Gaza.
At this time, we are working with incomplete information and are urgently seeking more details.
World Central Kitchen had no knowledge that any individual in the vehicle had alleged ties to the October 7th Hamas attack.
World Central Kitchen is pausing operations in Gaza at this time.
Our hearts are with our colleagues and their families in this unimaginable moment.
