After the ceasefire agreement in Gaza, the number of aid trucks entering the Strip was expected to surge to around 600 per day.

However, since the start of the ceasefire, many conflicting figures have circulated about the number and type of aid trucks that entered Gaza. 

In addition, several old videos have been reshared online, misleadingly presented as footage of the current ceasefire deliveries.

Misbar’s team identified and verified several misleading videos that falsely claimed to show aid entering Gaza.

Video Does Not Show Aid Trucks Recently Entering Gaza

On October 11, a video shared by Turkey’s Anadolu Agency claimed that “a limited number of humanitarian aid trucks entered Gaza through the Rafah Border Crossing from Egypt.”

The footage was later reposted by several social media users, who claimed that it showed aid entering Gaza after the recent ceasefire.

However, Misbar found that the video was originally published by Egypt’s Al Watan newspaper on September 28, weeks before the ceasefire took effect. The footage was shot by Al Watan photographer Ahmad Abu Draa.

False Claims About Caravans Lining Rafah Border

Another video, posted by the Israeli account @h3976a, allegedly showed caravans (prefabricated homes) lined up at the Rafah border, waiting to enter Gaza. The footage was later shared by several accounts, including @OSINT613 and other activist pages.

These accounts claimed, citing “Egyptian sources,” that dozens of caravans were waiting at Rafah to enter the Gaza Strip following the reopening of the crossing.

Misbar conducted a thorough search and found no reliable Egyptian or non-Egyptian sources reporting that prefabricated homes were lined up at the Rafah border.

The footage currently circulating most likely dates back to February 2025, following the January ceasefire between Hamas and Israel, when credible media outlets reported that caravans were waiting at Rafah to enter Gaza.

Video Does Not Show Turkish Aid Entering Gaza

Several Turkish accounts and users shared a video allegedly showing Turkish aid entering Gaza after the ceasefire via the Red Crescent.

However, Misbar investigated the footage and found that it dates back to June 25, 2025. The video was originally posted by the account @Sameer.ashraf92 and shows Gazan tribes securing the entry of aid into Gaza against theft, not the recent ceasefire deliveries.

How Much Aid Has Entered Gaza So Far?

On October 13, the Government Media Office in Gaza announced that only 173 aid trucks entered the Gaza Strip on Sunday, October 12, the first day following the ceasefire.

According to the statement, the convoy included three cooking gas trucks and six diesel fuel trucks designated for bakeries, generators, and hospitals, noting the urgent need for these supplies amid the prolonged blockade and widespread destruction caused by Israel's war on Gaza.

The office added that the quantities that entered are still very limited, describing them as “a drop in the ocean of needs,” insufficient to meet even the minimum humanitarian and living requirements of more than 2.4 million people in the Gaza Strip.

Later, the Director General of the Government Media Office in Gaza, Ismail Al-Thawabta, reiterated the same figures in an interview with Anadolu Agency, on October 14.

Turkey’s First Humanitarian Aid Convoy Enters Gaza Following Ceasefire

Turkey’s first humanitarian aid convoy since the latest ceasefire arrived in Gaza on October 13, consisting of 17 trucks of food and three trucks of blankets and tents.

The aid was organized by the Turkish Disaster and Emergency Management Authority (AFAD) in cooperation with the Turkish Red Crescent and other non-governmental organizations, according to the Turkish Presidential Office.

The convoy was delivered to Gaza via Egypt’s Kerem Abu Salem border crossing, after being transported from the Sinai city of El Arish, the office added.

In addition, the 17th “Goodness Ship,” carrying around 900 tons of humanitarian aid intended to meet the basic needs of the people of Gaza, departed on October 14 from Turkiye’s southern Mersin International Port.

The aid is scheduled to reach Gaza via the Kerem Abu Salem border crossing, the nearest port access point to the Strip.

Egyptian Red Crescent Sends Over 400 Trucks of Aid to Gaza

Following the announcement of the ceasefire agreement on October 9, the Egyptian Red Crescent reported that 153 aid trucks were headed into Gaza via the Rafah border crossing, according to France 24.

Two sources from the Egyptian aid organization confirmed to the French agency that the trucks entered through the Rafah crossing’s bypass road.

Among them were 80 trucks from the United Nations, 21 from Qatar, and 17 from the Egyptian Red Crescent.

However, on Sunday, October 12, the Egyptian Red Crescent announced the dispatch of 400 trucks carrying over 9,000 tons of urgent aid through the “Zad Al-Izza” convoys to Gaza. 

The convoy included more than 6,000 tons of food baskets and flour, nearly 1,000 tons of essential medical and relief supplies such as portable toilets, tents, blankets, and mats, and over 2,000 tons of fuel.

It is not yet confirmed how many of these trucks have successfully entered Gaza.

World Food Programme Sends 137 Aid Trucks to Gaza

The World Food Programme (WFP) announced on October 14 that it has sent 137 aid trucks to Gaza so far, supporting bakeries, nutrition programs, and food distributions.

Previously, the WFP stated that “over 170,000 metric tons of food commodities managed by the organization are ready for dispatch or already en route via Ashdod port, Egypt, Jordan, and West Bank corridors.”

The organization explained that this quantity is enough staple food to feed Gaza’s population of over two million people for up to three months.

However, the WFP stressed that, to deliver aid at scale, it requires fast and efficient use of all entry points, secure and unhindered humanitarian access, the rehabilitation of vital infrastructure and storage facilities, and faster clearance protocols at Ashdod port.

Ocha Secures 190,000 Metric Tons of Aid for Gaza

In turn, the Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA) announced on October 12 that it had secured Israeli approval for more aid to move forward, bringing the amount in its cleared pipeline to 190,000 metric tons, including food, shelter items, medicine, and other supplies.

On the same day, OCHA reported that, for the first time since March, cooking gas entered the Strip, and additional items, such as tents for displaced families, frozen meat, fresh fruit, flour, and medicines.

OCHA had previously announced a 60-day plan aiming to increase the pipeline of supplies to hundreds of trucks per day. 

It is noted that OCHA aggregates aid from multiple UN agencies, Red Crescent societies, NGOs, and international donors, and includes all types of humanitarian aid approved to enter Gaza, such as food, cooking gas, fuel, shelter materials, and medical supplies.

Israel Limits Aid Into Gaza to Half

On October 14, Israel announced that it would halve the number of aid trucks allowed into Gaza to 300 per day and postpone the opening of the Rafah crossing.

Both actions violate the ceasefire agreement brokered by Trump, which stipulated 600 trucks per day and the opening of the Rafah crossing starting Wednesday, after all hostages had been received.

The IOF arm that oversees aid flows into Gaza, COGAT, also notified the United Nations that no fuel or gas will be allowed into the Strip, except for specific needs related to humanitarian infrastructure.

COGAT accused Hamas, in a note to the U.N., of violating “the agreement regarding the release of the bodies of the hostages held in the Gaza Strip.”

It added that “as a result, the political leadership has decided to impose a number of sanctions related to the humanitarian agreement that was reached,” according to Reuters.

Later, Hamas announced it would release the bodies of four more Israeli hostages, which were handed over to the ICRC.

Despite this, it was not reported that Israel would reverse its decision to reduce the entry of supplies.

International Committees Demand All Crossings to Be Opened, 600 Trucks to Enter per Day

The International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) spokesman, Christian Cardon, told reporters in Geneva that all crossings into Gaza should be opened.

Spokesperson for OCHA, Jens Laerke, acknowledged that not all crossings are currently functional, with some being partially destroyed, and noted that road clearance inside Gaza is needed to allow trucks carrying food, medical aid, fuel, water, and other essential supplies to enter.

Meanwhile, UNICEF spokesman, Ricardo Pires, said the agency had 1,370 trucks ready to enter the territory. 

He emphasized: ‘The level of destruction is so huge that it will take at least 600 trucks a day, which is the aim that we have. We're far from that’.

It is noted that before the war, approximately 500 to 600 trucks entered Gaza per day to meet the basic needs of the civilian population, including food, medicine, and supplies. 

However, since March 2025, the number has dropped to 40–50 trucks per day, with some days seeing no trucks entering at all.
