Resolution criteria
This market will resolve to the date when food aid deliveries into Gaza officially resume, according to reliable sources.
Background
Israel shut all deliveries of food into Gaza on March 2 out of concerns that this was prolonging the war and allowing Hamas to store food. On May 7 World Central Kitchen announced that it ran out of supplies in Gaza and could not continue its operations. Recently, Israel and the US have come up with a plan to distribute food. The US State Department has indicated that such a plan is coming soon and even as early as April 30 the Jerusalem Post reported that Israel would restore food aid to Gaza "within weeks".

@ArtimisFowl The market asked for when food aid into Gaza officialy resumes. Anyway, I expect them to get the food soon.

On Monday, Israel allowed at least five aid trucks to enter, according to the Israeli military office that oversees humanitarian affairs. Tom Fletcher, the U.N.’s top aid coordinator, welcomed the move but called it a “drop in the ocean of what is urgently needed.”
OK, that's enough for resolution. Not before Monday May 19 but before the later dates.
The Jerusalem Post reports that the US humanitarian plan, backed by Israel, will start operations by the end of May.
