OCHA Spokesperson in Gaza Olga Cherevko said that since the ceasefire took effect, the United Nations and partners have moved swiftly to scale up the delivery of humanitarian assistance across Gaza. “It's all hands on deck,” she said. Olga Cherevko, OCHA Spokesperson in Gaza spoke to reporters via video link. She said, “after months of devastation and suffering, the bombs have stopped falling. And with that silence came an opportunity and a responsibility to act.” “We have wasted no time,” the OCHA Spokesperson said, highlighting that the UN's scale up plan for the first 60 days tested and proven to work, “is in full motion.” Cherevko said, “In the past three days, thousands of tons of humanitarian aid and other supplies have entered Gaza, including cooking gas, which entered on Sunday for the first time in over seven months.” “We're offloading and collecting critical supplies and accessing areas which we weren't able to reach for months. With 190,000 metric tons of assistance in our cleared pipeline,” she added. The OCHA Spokesperson also said, “Our medical teams are resupplying hospitals and field clinics that have been running on empty. We're delivering fuel to power by bakeries, desalination plants and hospitals again. We're repairing roads and checking them for explosive risks and helping displaced families prepare for the winter months.” “Every truck, every piece of bread, every box of medicine that crosses into Gaza carries with it a message of hope for a better tomorrow,” Olga stressed. She reiterated that the humanitarian needs “remain immense.” “The ceasefire has ended the fighting, but it hasn't ended the crisis,” the OCHA Spokesperson said, explaining, “displacement, destroyed infrastructure, lawlessness, damaged roads, unexploded ordnance and the collapse of basic services are just some of the challenges.” She said, “Scaling up response is not just about logistics and more trucks. It's about restoring humanity and dignity to a shattered population.” Olga also said that the UN is working around the clock with all parties to ensure predictable, safe and sustained access. “But let me be clear,” she said, “Humanitarian aid alone will not be a substitute for peace. The ceasefire must hold. It must become the basis for a broader political effort that brings the end of cycles of violence and despair.” Asked about the danger of unexploded ordnance, the OCHA Spokesperson said, “We have, of course, our teams on the ground who do assessments, and they assess the various roads, the locations, and they go to make sure that the ordnance is clearly marked and that they're also awareness for the communities to make sure that they know not to touch them and not to be around them and so forth.” Asked reports of delaying the scaling up of humanitarian aid coming into Gaza, Olga said, “We have received this is communication from the Israeli authorities. And of course, we continue to encourage the parties to adhere to the agreements that have been set out in the ceasefire parameters. And we certainly very much hope that, the bodies of the hostages are handed over and that the ceasefire continues to, to be implemented.” Honourable Anita Anand, Minister of Foreign Affairs, and India's Minister of External Affairs, Subrahmanyam Jaishankar, issued this joint statement: “At the invitation of the Minister for External Affairs, Dr. S. Jaishankar, the Minister of Foreign Affairs of Canada, Ms. Anita Anand, undertook, an official visit to India from October 12 to 14, 2025. “The meeting in New Delhi is a follow up to the guidance provided by the Prime Ministers of the 2 countries during their meeting on the sidelines of the G7 Summit in Kananaskis, Canada, to take calibrated measures to restore stability in the relationship and to pursue a constructive and balanced partnership grounded in respect for each other's concerns and sensitivities, strong people-to-people ties, and growing economic complementarities. “Pursuant to this guidance, both sides initiated several steps, including the joint announcement of reinstatement of High Commissioners on August 28, 2025, meeting between the National Security Advisers of the 2 countries on advancing Canada-India security cooperation in New Delhi on September 18, 2025, and the agreement to continue senior official-level discussions on security and law enforcement cooperation, pre-Foreign Office Consultations between Secretary (East) and Canada's Deputy Minister of Foreign Affairs in New Delhi on September 19,2025, and a meeting between the 2 Foreign Ministers on the sidelines of the UN General Assembly high-level week in New York on September 29, 2025.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/policy-and-rights--3339563/support.

Following weeks of mounting pressure over the humanitarian crisis in Gaza, EU foreign policy chief Kaja Kallas has presented a list of options that range from suspending trade with Israel to halting student exchanges. All because an EU review found Israel falling short of the human rights standards required by the agreement, while the latest reports are showing attacks on civilians at aid distribution centres. So, will the EU take concrete action under Article 2 of the agreement, or settle for monitoring Israel's promises on humanitarian aid?Join us on our journey through the events that shape the European continent and the European Union.Production: By Europod, in co production with Sphera Network.Follow us on:LinkedInInstagram Hosted on Acast.

Comhráite sa Ghinéiv faoi chlár núicléach na hIaráine. Israeli military forces say they carried out further bombing raids on various locations in Iran overnight. Deir fórsaí míleata Iosrael go ndearna siad tuilleadh ruathar buamála ar áiteanna éagsúla san Iaráin i gcaitheamh na hoíche. Among the locations hit, the Israelis say, was a center linked to Iran's nuclear development program in the capital, Tehran, as well as a missile manufacturing center. I measc na n-áiteanna a buaileadh, a deir na hIosraelaigh, bhí ionad atá bainteach le clár forbartha núicléiche na hIaráine sa phríomhchathair, Tehran, chomh maith le hionad déantúsaíochta diúracán. This is the eighth consecutive night that the Israelis have attacked locations in Iran, aiming, they say, to prevent the Iranians from developing nuclear weapons. Sin an t-ochtú hoíche as a chéile ag na hIosraelaigh áiteanna san Iaráin a ionsaí agus é mar aidhm acu, a deir siad, bac a chur ar na hIaránaigh airm núicléacha a fhorbairt. The Iranians say they are not developing any nuclear weapons and are enriching uranium solely as a source of energy. Deir na hIaránaigh nach bhfuil aon airm núicléacha á bhforbairt acu agus gur mar fhoinse fuinnimh amháin atá úráiniam á shaibhriú acu. It is also reported that seven people were injured when an Iranian missile hit the city of Beersheba in southern Israel last night, the second night in a row that the city has been attacked. Tuairiscítear freisin gur gortaíodh seachtar nuair a bhuail diuracán ón Iaráin cathair Beersheba i ndeisceart Iosrael aréir, an dara hoíche as a chéile a ionsaíodh an chathair sin. European Foreign Ministers will meet today with Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araqchi as part of ongoing efforts to reach a compromise on Iran's nuclear program and end the hostilities. Beidh cruinniu inniu ag Airí Gnóthaí Eachtracha ón Eoraip le hAire Gnóthaí Eachtracha na hIaráine, Abbas Araqchi, mar chuid de na hiarrachtaí atá ar bun teacht ar chomhréiteach faoi chlár núicléach na hIaráine agus deireadh a chur leis an gcogaíocht. The Foreign Ministers of Britain, France and Germany had telephone conversations with the Iranian leader earlier this week and the two sides agreed to meet in Geneva today. Bhí comhráite teileafóin níos túisce an tseachtain seo ag Airí Gnóthaí Eachtracha na Breataine, na Fraince agus na Gearmáine le fear na hIaráine agus shocraigh an dá thaobh teacht le chéile sa Ghinéiv inniu. It is understood that a report was provided to US Secretary of State Marco Rubio following the telephone conversations. Tuigtear gur cuireadh tuairisc ar fáil do Rúnaí Stáit Mheiriceá Marco Rubio i ndiaidh na gcomhráite teileafóin. RTÉ News and Current Affairs Nuacht agus Cúrsaí Reatha RTÉ
