Israel’s Coordinator of Government Activities in the Territories (COGAT)—the Defense Ministry body overseeing civilian affairs in Judea, Samaria and Gaza—revealed on Sunday the numbers behind the aid that has entered the Gaza Strip since the ceasefire took effect on Oct. 10, 2025.

More than 1.5 million tons of food has entered the territory, delivered on average by 600 trucks per day, according to the unit.

Additionally, roughly 650,000 tents and tarpaulins have been delivered, including 70,000 tons of hygiene supplies, 12,500 tons of medical equipment and 6,500 trucks of essential winter supplies.

“There is no limit to the amount of aid that can enter Gaza. We remain committed to facilitating these vital goods for the civilian population,” COGAT wrote on X.

Jared Sclar, a Democratic political consultant, told JNS that the rematch between Aisha Wahab, an anti-Israel state senator, and Melissa Hernandez, a former mayor of Dublin, Calif., in November will be “genuinely competitive.”
The faction is “an extension” of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps Quds Force and is “not a Lebanese resistance movement,” a State Department official said.
“We decided that it was time for a rigorous narrative review of what we called anatomy of antisemitism in the health professions, not just medicine but across-the-board,” one of the authors of a new paper told JNS.
Esther Panitch, the only Jewish member of the Georgia state legislature, told JNS that she asked the local Democratic Party to reschedule the event, which is currently slated to occur on Rosh Hashanah.
