Ten trucks of food boxes sponsored by Love Aid Singapore successfully entered Gaza
Love Aid Singapore’s US$50,000 donation enabled ten trucks to deliver 1,100 food boxes each to Gaza. Goh stressed the importance of trucks in aid delivery but faced logistical hurdles at checkpoints. Despite challenges, Love Aid Singapore persists in supporting Gaza through various initiatives.
Gilbert Goh, a Singaporean activist and founder of Love Aid Singapore, shared a positive update regarding Gaza food aid through the organization’s Instagram account on Tuesday (2 April).
Goh announced that ten trucks sponsored by Love Aid Singapore had recently entered Gaza, expressing gratitude for the generous donations totaling US$50,000 that facilitated the trucking support through their partner NGO, International Relief Organisation.
However, Love Aid Singapore’s donation of US$50,000 was only sufficient to cover the expenses of 13 trucks, each capable of transporting 1,100 food boxes.
This is due to the fact that the operational cost of each truck amounts to US$3,500.
The donated food parcels, totaling 50,000, were made available by an individual, and the NGO required additional support for transporting this substantial aid into Gaza.
Goh emphasized the significance of this aid delivery, stating that the 50,000 food boxes will provide crucial assistance to over 250,000 Palestinians who have been severely impacted by the ongoing six-month-long conflict.
Logistical challenges hamper food aid delivery to Palestinians in Gaza
Goh emphasized the effectiveness of food trucks as the optimal means of delivering a large quantity of aid into Gaza.
However, he expressed frustration with the logistical challenges posed by crowded bottlenecks at border customs checkpoints and restrictions.

He has forgotten his priorities? anyway he wont get my vote if he stands for elections.
If Israel are terrorists, they will not allow U.S to drop food from the skies or prevent the food from reaching the Gaza people. Must thanks Israel for the aid.
Once the Hamas is gone, Palestine will be free. Lets hope they don’t make the same mistakes.
Hamas do not care about these Palestinians sufferings. What do you think?
Google shows 90 % of Palestine polls support Hamas terrorists.
I wonder why people are supporting them? What do you think?
Dear Palestinians:
1) Why hospitals are militarized?
2) Why use Gaza to build tunnels and hospitals for terrorists?
3) Hamas terrorists have no rights to bargain
4) Why never condemn Hamas
5) Why ask for food aid from U.S and Israel if you keep calling Israel genocide?
7) Who started it all?
8) Why Arab countries are not accepting Palestinians?
9) WhyHamas are not releasing hostages.
10)) the list goes onβ¦
Regret voting for this guy.
Is he still with PV? I wonder.
Well done Gilbert πππππ
