<p>GAZA, (PIC)</p>
<p>UN humanitarian chief Tom Fletcher said on Friday that
Trump\u2019s Gaza plan \u201copens a window of opportunity\u201d to get aid
into the Gaza Strip and secure the release of Israeli captives
held in the enclave.</p>
<p>\u201cWe are ready and eager to act,\u201d Fletcher said in a
statement, noting that the UN has \u201c170,000 metric tons of
food, medicine, shelter and other desperately needed supplies
poised to enter Gaza from across the region.\u201d</p>
<p>\u201cFor our lifesaving plan to succeed, we need: open crossings;
safe movement for civilians and aid workers; unrestricted
entry of goods; visas for staff; the space for humanitarians
to operate; and the private sector to be revived,\u201d Fletcher
said.</p>
<p>\u201cThis nightmare has gone on too long. Every minute of delay
brings more misery. But we now have a chance to deliver. We
call on all parties to agree to a ceasefire, give us the
access, let us work,\u201d the UN official added.</p>
<p>Israel has upheld a relentless blockade on Gaza for months,
cutting off vital humanitarian aid and plunging the territory
into a dire humanitarian crisis marked by extreme deprivation
and escalating famine.</p>
