A truck carries humanitarian aid across Trident Pier, a temporary pier to deliver aid, off the Gaza Strip, amid the ongoing conflict between Israel and the Palestinian Islamist group Hamas, near the Gaza coast, on May 19, 2024.
Israel is retaliating against Hamas in Gaza - an enclave of 2.3 million people - over a brutal Oct 7 attack by the Palestinian militants. Aid access into southern Gaza has been disrupted since Israel stepped up military operations in Rafah, a move that the UN says has forced 900,000 people to flee and has raised tensions with Egypt.
Israel's strategic affairs minister, Ron Dermer, told MSNBC's"Morning Joe" the hold-up was Egypt's fault.
