Israel and the U.S. are trying to get a new aid system off the ground. Throughout the war, you've had traditional aid groups like the U.N. and other charities providing aid to Gazans where they are in the Gaza Strip. And Israel for the entirety of the war has accused Hamas of siphoning off that aid and using it to bolster its rule in Gaza.

Aid groups say there's been no significant diversion. But Israel's been looking for a way to get aid away from the UN and aid groups. It also obviously has lots of years-long skepticism and tensions between Israel and the UN. So what we've seen over the past couple of days is this new aid mechanism get off the ground.

The effort itself is really controversial because the UN and aid groups say they're not going to work with the GHF. They think that if they do, it'll violate their core humanitarian principles because Palestinians have to essentially be displaced. They have to move to reach these aid centers. And they don't want to be part of that. They see that aid is being politicized or even weaponized.

And what we've seen over the past few months since March 2nd is Israel blocking aid from entering Gaza entirely. That ended about a week ago when Israel decided it would let in a limited amount of aid. And so during these few weeks or nearly three months, actually, no aid was being let into Gaza, no food, no medicine, no fuel whatsoever.
