Aid Flowing into Gaza as Ceasefire Allows Key Border Crossing Reopening

Aid is now flowing into Gaza under a ceasefire agreement, which requires 600 truckloads of supplies to enter daily. The Rafah border crossing, controlled by Egypt, has been closed since Israeli troops occupied it in May. Under the ceasefire deal, the flow of trucks has increased significantly, with many delivering food, blankets, and shelter materials.

While aid had been stockpiled in staging areas, distribution to displaced populations had been limited. The reopening and expansion of Rafah’s capacity are crucial for ensuring aid reaches those in need as the ceasefire continues.
