Humanitarian aid efforts in the Gaza Strip have seen fluctuations in volume and logistical coordination. Initial reports indicated a potential increase in aid and commercial shipments, with daily truck numbers potentially rising to 600 following understandings with mediators regarding reduced coordination fees.

Subsequent operations included the dispatch of Egypt’s 261st humanitarian aid convoy, named ‘Zad al-Izza’. This convoy, consisting of 50 trucks carrying food, medicine, fuel, and hygiene products, entered through the Rafah land port toward the Kerem Shalom crossing. Since the start of the conflict, approximately 58,000 trucks have delivered over one million tons of relief supplies to the territory.
