The UN used a new land route to deliver food to northern Gaza for the first time in three weeks, as global pressure grows on Israel to allow more access to the coastal enclave. Jamie McGoldrick, UN aid co-ordinator for the occupied Palestinian territory, said a World Food Programme convoy had used an Israeli military road that runs alongside the Gaza border fence to reach the enclave’s north. Enough food for 25,000 people was delivered to Gaza city in the early hours of Tuesday, said WFP spokeswoman Shaza Moghraby.
