        <p>GAZA, (PIC)</p>
        <p>The Government Emergency Operations Room in the southern
          governorates has categorically denied Israeli claims that
          border crossings have been reopened and humanitarian aid is
          entering Gaza, describing them as entirely false.</p>
        <p>The statement confirms that the crossings have remained
          closed for the 83rd consecutive day, amid escalating acts of
          genocide.</p>
        <p>In a statement issued on Wednesday, the Operations Room
          condemned the continued closure of the crossings, despite
          Israeli assertions days ago about allowing the flow of
          humanitarian and medical aid. It clarified that all aid trucks
          remain stuck and have not been granted entry.</p>
        <p>The statement added that this delay appears deliberate and
          may be part of a new Israeli plan aimed at undermining UN
          humanitarian institutions and militarizing aid delivery.</p>
        <p>It further noted that several logistics companies have
          already approached humanitarian organizations, offering to
          deliver aid into Gaza on the condition that it be handed over
          to specific parties\u2014at an exorbitant cost exceeding 130,000
          shekels per truck.</p>
        <p>The Operations Room called on the international community and
          UN institutions to intervene immediately to lift the blockade
          on Gaza permanently, end the genocide against civilians, and
          save the lives of innocent people\u2014including children, women,
          the elderly, and the sick\u2014who face daily death due to the
          collapse of healthcare and the total depletion of medicines.</p>
        <p>It stressed that humanitarian aid must be delivered
          exclusively through UN agencies, warning against any
          alternative channels.</p>
        <p>The statement also warned of the grave consequences of the
          continued policy of starvation, thirst, mass killing, and
          forced displacement, which results in the daily death of
          hundreds, including entire families erased from the civil
          registry, as well as the spread of disease and severe
          malnutrition among people of all ages.</p>
