Afghanistan has delivered more than 500 tonnes of humanitarian aid to Gaza to support people affected by the ongoing crisis. The aid was sent through the Rafah crossing, which is one of the main entry points for supplies into the region. This effort comes as many families continue to struggle with shortages of basic needs.

According to officials in Kabul, the total shipment weighed about 530 tonnes. The supplies were arranged and purchased by a delegation from Afghanistan's interim government while they were in Egypt. The aid is expected to be shared among around 22,000 families in Gaza.

The shipment includes essential items such as food, clothing, and other daily necessities. The total value of the aid is estimated to be about $500,000, showing Afghanistan's effort to support those facing hardship despite its own internal challenges.

Afghan authorities also restated their strong position on the Palestinian issue. They said the situation should be resolved based on historical facts and by respecting the rights of the Palestinian people. This reflects continued international attention on the conflict and humanitarian situation.

However, people in Gaza Strip and aid organisations say the help reaching the area is still far from enough. Many describe the current humanitarian condition as "catastrophic," with shortages of food, medical supplies, and shelter continuing to affect daily life.

Since the war began in October 2023, health authorities in Gaza report that at least 72,336 people, mostly women and children, have been killed, while over 172,000 others have been injured. The ongoing crisis has made humanitarian aid like this very important, but much more support is still urgently needed.
