# ReliefWeb reports Israeli elections and government formation cited on Gaza aid timing

*ReliefWeb reported that foreign ministers and partners tied progress to Israeli elections and then to the formation of a government, and that this was not an acceptable excuse under international humanitarian law. The Times of Israel reported Board of Peace envoys pressed Netanyahu after those elections, and according to COGAT winterization equipment was still being coordinated for entry into Gaza.*

[ReliefWeb](https://reliefweb.int/report/occupied-palestinian-territory/no-more-delay-un-relief-chief-urges-immediate-entry-winter-supplies-gaza-enhe) reported wording that foreign ministers and partners had assured support, but also repeatedly said that progress would be hard until after Israeli elections, and that the speaker was now told to wait for the formation of a government. ReliefWeb, the cited source, reported that under international humanitarian law this was not an acceptable excuse, as the international community and Board of Peace had made clear. According to [The Times of Israel](https://www.timesofisrael.com/board-of-peace-warns-israel-to-send-more-winter-aid-to-gaza-as-idf-says-supplies-delivered/), the IDF said tens of thousands of tents and other winter supplies have entered Gaza.

ReliefWeb reported that foreign ministers and partners had assured the speaker of support.

ReliefWeb reported that those ministers and partners repeatedly said that progress would be hard until after Israeli elections. According to The Times of Israel, Mladenov and Blair were in Israel last week, after the Israeli elections, to press Netanyahu.

ReliefWeb reported that the speaker was now told to wait for the formation of a government. According to The Times of Israel, the Board of Peace called on the Netanyahu government to act immediately to authorize and facilitate the entry of winterization and humanitarian supplies.

ReliefWeb reported that, in case of doubt about international humanitarian law, this waiting was not an acceptable excuse.

ReliefWeb reported that the international community and Board of Peace had made that clear. According to [The Jerusalem Post](https://www.jpost.com/middle-east/article-914378), the Board of Peace called on Israel to authorize winter supplies aid entry into Gaza.

According to [COGAT](https://x.com/cogatonline/status/2117300705937838451), on 2 November 2026 COGAT continues to coordinate the entry of special equipment into the Gaza Strip as it ramps up efforts to bring in winterization equipment, in coordination with the international community.
