Third Aid Convoy Enters Gaza through Rafah Crossing from Egypt

A relief worker and two security sources reported that a third convoy of aid trucks entered the Rafah crossing from Egypt today, Monday, heading towards the besieged Gaza Strip. Aid delivery operations began at the crossing on Saturday after disputes over the inspection procedures for these trucks and bombardments on the Palestinian side of the crossing caused relief supplies to be stuck in Egypt. UN officials state that about 100 trucks need to cross daily to meet basic needs in Gaza, which is home to approximately 2.3 million people, as its food, water, and fuel supplies are running low.
