Report: Israel stalls delivery of 900 wheelchairs for Gaza children Israeli restrictions have stalled the delivery of more than 900 wheelchairs donated by two Australian charities to help injured children in Gaza, according to ABC News. Two shipments from New South Wales-based charity Kids on Wheels Alliance arrived in Jordan in February 2025, while a third, from Wheelchairs for Kids based in Western Australia, arrived in October 2025.  Both remain stuck in storage facilities managed by the Jordan Hashemite Charity Organization (JHCO). At one of those sites on the outskirts of the Jordanian capital Amman, Abdullah Al-Balawi, a doctor with the Palestinian Australian New Zealand Medical Association (PANZMA), told the ABC: "These wheelchairs that are dedicated to Gaza's amputee children and those paralysed as a result of the war … they do not pose any threat," he said. The JHCO said the Israeli agency responsible for aid coordination in Gaza, COGAT, had blocked the chairs from getting into Gaza, but an Israeli government source denied that an application for the Australian wheelchairs had been rejected. COGAT did not answer the ABC's specific questions about the Australian donations, but in a general response said it had let thousands of wheelchairs into the strip during the war, ABC reported.
