In this new episode of Bridging the Gap podcast, now hosted by the Middle East Policy Council (MEPC), Rachel Nelson interviews Shadi Martini, CEO of the Multifaith Alliance, about the organization’s work delivering humanitarian aid into Gaza since the October ceasefire. They cover operational challenges: restricted crossings, inspections, dual-use limits, rising local prices, and corruption, that complicate getting food, fuel, shelter, and medical supplies to displaced families.
Martini explains practical solutions the group uses: local procurement, alternative routes, tarps for shelter, nutrition programs, and child-focused supplies. He also emphasizes Gaza’s resilience and the long recovery ahead, calling for continued international attention and support.
