I went to the NGO to see if there any further technical specifications to read about, it doesn't seem so: https://www.acs-italia.it/gazaweb-e-gli-alberi-della-rete/ it seems to be purely built upon cellular connec

this is pretty neat, reminds me of cuba's meshnet system. i was wondering how all the efforts to buy gazan's eSIMs was going, this seems to be one of the results.

UNRWA has a pretty good breakdown of how much aid reaches IDPs here, it goes into better detail than the Israeli government site on this matter: https://www.unrwa.org/resources/reports/unrwa-situation-repo... The
