BREAKING: Israel finally grants passage as first aid trucks enter Gaza through Rafah border in Egypt

NORTH SINAI, EGYPT - OCTOBER 18: Lorries line up near the Rafah border on October 18, 2023 in North Sinai, Egypt. The aid convoy, organized by a group of Egyptian NGOs, set off Saturday 14th October from Cairo for the Gaza-Egypt border crossing at Rafah. On October 7th, the Palestinian militant group Hamas launched a surprise attack on border communities in southern Israel, spurring the most violent flare-up of the Israel-Palestine conflict in decades.

A convoy including 20 aid trucks entered the Gaza Strip on Saturday from Egypt, carrying medicine and food supplies, a statement from Palestinian group Hamas said. “The relief aid convoy that is supposed to enter today includes 20 trucks that carry medicine, medical supplies, and a limited amount of food supplies ,” Hamas’s media office said earlier.

Many in Gaza, reduced to eating one meal a day without enough water to drink, are desperately waiting for aid.
