US Defence Secretary Lloyd Austin has said that Israel had made some progress in getting assistance into Gaza but more needed to be done, reports. The US told Israel in a letter last month it must take steps in the next month to improve the humanitarian situation in Gaza or face potential restrictions on US military aid. While Austin did not specifically comment on the letter, he said: “They have made some progress… but more needs to be made.” The letter had outlined specific steps Israel must take within 30 days, including enabling a minimum of 350 trucks to enter Gaza per day, instituting pauses in fighting to allow aid delivery and rescinding evacuation orders to Palestinian civilians when there is no operational need.
