What is the point of fundraising for humanitarian aid if all incoming aid to Gaza is blockaded?

I don't know the specifics, but Hasan has done fundraisers before and has demonstrated diligence in vetting organizations he supports. I do know it took a couple of days to get set up.

Hasan said the organizations he chose are already in Gaza.

Sure but what are the org in Gaza supposed to do? They cannot buy food, vegetables or medical supply

Yeah I don't know, but I imagine if they have a way to get aid into Gaza, they're going to be even more quiet about it right now than usual

Edit: Not to mention that they surely stockpile

I think most of it will go to preparations for when a corridor opens.

Hasan posted an update from one of the 4 charities involved recently. Sounds like the money gets turned into supplies and then brought in.
