Israel announces reopening of Kerem Shalom crossing with Gaza
Israel announced on Wednesday the reopening of the Kerem Shalom crossing, a key entry point for humanitarian aid into Gaza.
Aid trucks from Egypt, carrying humanitarian aid, were already arriving at the crossing, the office of the Coordinator of Government Activities in the Territories, Israel's military liaison to the Palestinians, said in a statement.
The trucks are loaded with food, water, shelter equipment, medicine, and medical equipment donated by the international community, the office noted.
On Sunday, Israel closed the Kerem Shalom crossing after a Palestinian armed group launched rockets at a nearby military base in southern Israel, which resulted in the deaths of at least three Israeli soldiers.
