CAIRO (Reuters) - A truck loaded with aid supplies for the Palestinian autonomous region of Gaza arrived on the 17th at the Rafah checkpoint, which connects southern Gaza with Egypt. This was confirmed by local officials and security sources. However, the checkpoint has been closed on the Gaza side in recent days due to Israeli attacks, and it is unclear when trucks will be able to pass through it.
Secretary of State Blinken visited Israel for the second time last week, and announced that the two countries had agreed to develop a plan to provide humanitarian aid to Gaza residents without benefiting the Islamic group Hamas. See more
The Gaza Interior Ministry said Israeli airstrikes hit Rafah and the nearby town of Khan Younis the night before, killing at least 49 people.
Approximately 160 trucks loaded with relief supplies left El-Arish in Egypt's Sinai Peninsula early on the 17th.
A UN spokesperson said on the 16th that there had been no progress on reopening the Rafah checkpoint.
Egyptian sources said the planned arrival on the 16th was not possible due to concerns that Hamas would seize or destroy aid supplies. An understanding was then reached to allow supplies to be brought to specific locations in Gaza under surveillance in exchange for a limited evacuation of foreign passport holders.
