The United Nations said on Monday that it has resumed delivery of aid in Gaza after Hamas returned the goods it confiscated from the U.N. Refugee Agency for Palestinians (UNRWA) last week. “All of the aid has been returned to our warehouses,” said John Ging, the director of operations for UNRWA in Gaza. “The return of every sack of flour and every blanket that was taken is evidence in my mind of their realization and their seriousness in terms of the assurances we have received from them that their will be no reoccurrence,” added Ging, who was speaking to reporters at U.N. headquarters via video link from Gaza. UNRWA suspended aid delivery on Friday after Hamas confiscated ten truckloads of food aid. Ging said aid delivery will resume on Wednesday. Israel has closed all border crossings until after its parliamentary elections, which take place on Tuesday. He also called on Israel to expand its list of goods allowed in to Israel and said, so far, UNRWA has been unable to print school texts because paper is not allowed in.
