- On 21 August, the first batch of 25 satellite-based tracking devices―Track24―was delivered to the World Food Programme (WFP) office in Jerusalem upon securing clearance at Tel Aviv airport. The ETC is engaging with the Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA) and other stakeholders to secure the Access Support Unit (ASU) clearance to transport these devices into Gaza with the next Special United Nations Official (SUNO) mission.
- On 20 August, the ETC collaborated with the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees in the Near East (UNRWA) and the WFP to establish internet connectivity at the Skaik Building in Gaza City, designated as the UN inter-agency residence to support the expansion of humanitarian response efforts in northern Gaza. The ETC team is planning to provide internet connectivity at this hub as part of ETC's common services for humanitarian responders in Gaza.
- On 19 August, the ETC handed over one of the four solar-powered solution kits imported on 24 July to UNRWA to support the humanitarian operations of UN agencies in Khan Yunis. Earlier, on 27 July, the ETC provided another kit to the United Nations Department of Safety and Security (UNDSS) to ensure an uninterrupted power supply to the Gaza Security Operations Centre (SOC), ensuring 24/7 operations.
