- August 15, 2025 In a joint statement released on Thursday, over 100 non-governmental organizations (NGOs) condemned the Israeli government for blocking their efforts to bring supplies into Gaza. The joint statement said that Israel's justification has rejected the requests from dozens of NGOs to transport aid supplies to the Gaza Strip on the grounds that they are "not authorized to deliver aid". In July alone, over 60 requests from dozens of NGOs have been disallowed. The joint statement also pointed out that the current situation has confirmed the previous concerns of the NGOs, that is, Israel's registration system is being used as a further tool to block aid, keeping food and medicine out of the Gaza Strip when it is facing the worst famine. Among them, the 2.5 million U.S. dollars' worth of aid supplies raised by Oxfam, headquartered in the UK, were blocked outside the Gaza Strip by Israel, while the seven million U.S. dollars' worth of supplies provided by the American Near East Refugee Aid were forced to be stranded in the Israeli port city of Ashdod, which is adjacent to the Gaza Strip. The NGOs are also concerned that if they fail to submit the identity information of their Palestinian employees by the September deadline set by the Israeli government, the Israeli side may completely ban their operations in Gaza and the West Bank and force them to withdraw all international employees within 60 days. 　　 In March this year, the Israeli government issued a series of new regulations targeting foreign NGOs working with Palestinians, requiring aid organizations to register with the Israeli side. Otherwise, they are not allowed to operate legally in Israel. The new regulations also list various situations that may lead to the rejection of registration or the revocation of qualifications. For instance, registration can be rejected if Israeli authorities determine that a group "promotes delegitimisation campaigns" against the country.
