The United Nations is hoping a second convoy of trucks will be sent into Gaza on Sunday under a light inspection system that will allow relief deliveries to scale up into next week, its humanitarian chief said.
of 20 trucks arrived in Gaza through the Rafah crossing with Egypt on Saturday, but efforts to deliver supplies to the besieged enclave have been held up by Israeli demands to verify aid.
"I've been hearing this afternoon - but we're in negotiation on it right now - that we may get another convoy tomorrow, maybe even slightly bigger, 20 to 30 trucks," U.N. aid chief Martin Griffiths said in an interview on the sidelines of a conference about Gaza in Cairo. "We need from tomorrow to build up a light, efficient, random hopefully, inspection system that will not slow things down," said Griffiths, comparing the type of possible system to that used in Gaziantep to send aid from Turkey into Syria.
