Prices at the Pumps - April 17, 2024 #saltwire #energymarkets #pricesatthepumps #gaspricesUNITED NATIONS - Israel's commitments to improve aid access in the Gaza Strip have had"limited and sometimes nil" impact, United Nations Secretary-General Antonio Guterres said on Thursday as he pushed for urgent, meaningful and measurable progress to avert famine.

"Apparent progress in one area is often cancelled out by delays and restrictions elsewhere," said Guterres. Guterres said three World Food Programme convoys - a total of 25 trucks - were authorized to use the Erez crossing on April 14, 15 and 16. Guterres also said that operating hours of Kerem Shalom and Nitzana crossings had been expanded by Israel, but security concerns meant the hours could not be expanded in Gaza.
