The Israeli army has delivered first aid through a new border crossing north of the Gaza Strip. The army said on Friday that trucks had entered the area. Israel has recently been under great pressure to improve humanitarian care in the closed-off coastal area.
The trucks were checked at the border crossing on the border with Egypt and then continued north. What was brought into the Gaza Strip and where exactly the new border crossing is located were initially not disclosed. The Israeli military announced in early April that it would reopen the Erez border crossing, which had been closed since the Hamas massacre on October 7.
The responsible Israeli Cogat authority also confirmed that a new border crossing had been opened. The paths must be unpaved. It was initially unclear whether this was the Erez crossing. This was intended for people until the start of the war, but was badly damaged. Many Israelis were also killed there. Media reports later spoke of a crossing a few kilometers west of Erez.
The situation is particularly precarious in the north
The situation for the other residents is particularly precarious in the north. Aid organizations warn of famine. Under increasing international pressure, the Israeli army announced it would allow more aid supplies into the disputed area.
According to Hamas’s health authority, 33,634 people have been killed and more than 76,200 others have been injured since the war began. The reason was the massacre by Hamas and other terrorist organizations on October 7, 2023 in Israel. More than 1,200 people were killed. The Israeli army responded with massive air strikes and a ground offensive.
