Israel has reopened the Erez border crossing to allow more humanitarian aid to enter through northern Gaza.

The first shipment of aid to use the Erez crossing arrived from Jordan. Israel opened the Rafah border crossing with Egypt in November, and the Kerem Shalom crossing at the border with Israel in December. The US and other countries have been air-dropping aid and the US is building a floating aid pier off Gaza's Mediterranean coast that will allow ships to deliver aid directly.

Aid agencies have been calling for its re-opening for months, to allow the supply of desperately needed food and medicine to hundreds-of-thousands of civilians at risk of famine. The re-opening also follows US demands that Israel do more to address Gaza's humanitarian crisis.

    Headline is misleading, should say "more aid", not just "aid".

    "Humanitarian step for the Gazans by Yisra'el but... There is nothing humanitarian on the part of Hamas to free the kidnapped, Hamas has sentenced its own existence."

    "Floating aid peer" - idk whoever came up with that deserves a raise like it literally was originally called a port for aid, or something like that idk 💀

    Ich wohne in Russland, in der Stadt Kaluga (180 km von Moskau entfernt). Ich wurde von einem ehemaligen Nachbarn verfolgt, sein Nachname ist Gerasimov. Wie sich herausstellte, rekrutiert er Spezialdienste, rekrutiert Agenten, um im Westen zu arbeiten. Jetzt wollen nur wenige Menschen gehen, um als Agent im Westen zu arbeiten, also sind sie mit Pressing beschäftigt. Für ein Arbeitsjahr bieten sie 55000-60000 Dollar an. Arbeiten als Verdeckungsagent
