For Shalabi, a local aid worker, a working phone is one of his most vital possessions.
“With regards to the humanitarian situation right now, it’s really dire,” Shalabi, senior program manager of Medical Aid for Palestinians, stressed.
The first trucks carrying humanitarian aid entered Gaza from Egypt on Saturday.
Aid workers say they are a fraction of what’s needed, with the World Health Organization saying Gaza requires 100 trucks a day to meet demands.
The death toll cannot be independently verified, but the Ministry of Health in Gaza said more than 400 had died.
