First wfp trucks cross into gaza as ceasefire opens window of hope for hungry families
ROME – UN World Food Programme convoys crossed into Gaza from the north and south on Sunday as the long-awaited ceasefire came into effect. The ceasefire is allowing the agency to bring in urgently needed food aid at scale and begin pulling the war-ravaged territory back from starvation.
The trucks, carrying parcels of ready-to-eat meals and bags of wheat flour, entered Gaza through the Kerem Shalom crossing in the south and through the Zikim crossing in the north. WFP aims to deliver at least 150 trucks loaded with food into Gaza every day, and to provide transport services to partners, as part of a humanitarian surge operation designed to flood the Gaza Strip with life-saving food supplies and other aid.
“This is a critical first step, but the needs in Gaza are ......Read More

Airlines Oppose UK ETA Price Hike
19 January 2025 (Geneva) - The International Air Transport Association (IATA) opposes the UK Home Office proposal to increase the costs of UK Electronic Travel Authorizations (ETAs) by 60% to GBP 16. Willie Walsh, IATA’s Director General, commented as follows:
“Proposing to increase ETA costs just a week after the system was introduced is bewildering. If implemented it would be a self-inflicted blow to the UK’s tourism competitiveness. In November the government laid out plans to increase tourist arrivals by 30% to reach 50 million annually by 2030 in pursuit of tourism’s economic benefits. Gouging these travelers with a 60% increase in the ETA is a very bad start. The added cost would come on top of the Air Passenger Duty (ADP)—the biggest ......Read More
