More than 2,400 aid trucks<\/a> have entered the Gaza <\/a>Strip<\/a> since the ceasefire deal <\/a>between Israel <\/a>and Hamas <\/a>took effect, according to United Nations officials, as attention shifted to rebuilding the enclave devastated during 15 months of intensive Israeli bombardment.<\/p>\n During the conflict, aid flows to the blockaded enclave were severely restricted.<\/p>\n As the truce entered its fourth day Wednesday, video from Reuters <\/a>showed convoys of trucks carrying humanitarian aid rolling into Rafah, in Gaza’s south. In one, Palestinians were seen running after the trucks along the city’s battered roads as they scrambled to pick up purple plastic aid bags that had fallen off. In another, they were seen picking up plastic water bottles from the ground, flanked by the ruins of damaged buildings.<\/p>\n The U.N. previously estimated that around 60% of Gaza\u2019s infrastructure has been destroyed, including schools and hospitals. Aid and fuel deliveries were severely restricted during the conflict, prompting international criticism of Israel.<\/p>\n More than 47,000 people have been killed in Israeli bombing during the conflict, according to local health officials. Meanwhile, around 90% of Gaza\u2019s population \u2014 almost 1.9 million people \u2014 have been displaced from their homes and forced to live in tent camps and other makeshift shelters, according to the United Nations<\/a>.<\/p>\n
