Understanding cables
Every cable message consists of three parts:

  • The middle box contains the header information that is associated with the cable. It includes information about the receiver(s) as well as a general subject.
  • The bottom box presents the body of the cable. The opening can contain a more specific subject, references to other cables (browse by origin to find them) or additional comment. This is followed by the main contents of the cable: a summary, a collection of specific topics and a comment section.
To understand the justification used for the classification of each cable, please use this WikiSource article as reference.

SUBJECT: UNRWA RESUMES AID SHIPMENTS TO GAZA 
 
REF: JERUSALEM 258 
 
1.  (SBU) UNRWA contacts told Poloff that UNRWA resumed aid 
shipments to Gaza.  Forty-eight truckloads of food and 
non-food items were transferred by UNRWA through Kerem Shalom 
on February 11. 
 
2.  (SBU) The resumption of aid shipments follows the return 
on February 8 and 9 of 3,500 blankets and 400 food parcels 
taken from Beach refugee camp February 3, and 300 metric tons 
of rice and flour taken on February 5.  UNRWA contacts told 
Poloff February 9 that UNRWA decided to resume shipments 
after "every sack and every blanket" had been returned and 
UNRWA had "received assurances and seen actions" that 
convinced them the problem would not reoccur.
