2. SOUNDBITE (Arabic) Ghalia Nuwaij, local resident:
"It's been nearly five months, and we haven't received any notice to come and collect aid. I'm a widow raising orphans. My husband was martyred, and I've lost two sons and a grandson. I'm caring for their orphaned children. There are five of us, me and the orphans. My other son is also a martyr, and he left behind four children."
3. Aid staff sealing cartons of food
4. Cartons of food
5. Gaza residents waiting in line to get food aid
6. SOUNDBITE (Arabic) Ahmed Al-Aklouk, local resident:
"Now (Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin) Netanyahu has blocked aid to the Gaza Strip under the pretext of security. And he wants to throw us here. There are many vulnerable people, including the elderly. There are also widows of martyrs who can't go anywhere. We support the idea of securing the aid. I support the entire security process. I call on our steadfast people to help ensure the success of securing the aid."

8. Old man using bike to carry food aid
After a five-month wait, Gaza residents were overcome with emotion as aid trucks carrying medical supplies and food arrived at a warehouse in Gaza City in the north of the war-torn enclave on Thursday.
Local resident Ghalia Nuwaij could not hide her emotion as she received aid, explaining that they had not received any assistance for nearly five months. She is a widow raising several orphans, having lost her husband and sons in the ongoing conflict.

I'm caring for their orphaned children. There are five of us, me and the orphans. My other son is also a martyr, and he left behind four children," she said.
On the same day, Israel closed the crossings into northern Gaza again following the circulation of images of masked men appearing on aid trucks. Clan leaders in Gaza explained that masked men, with some holding sticks, were protecting the aid convoy.
Another resident, Ahmed Al-Aklouk, expressed gratitude to those who escorted the aid.
