Aid convoy trucks waiting at the Rafah border crossing to enter Gaza from Egypt on Thursday. As Gaza grapples with an escalating humanitarian crisis, the prospect of getting aid through the closed Rafah border crossing with Egypt has taken on particular urgency. Hopes are high that the aid trucks would be able to cross into Gaza on Friday, according to European Union officials coordinating aid from the bloc. The American, U.N. and Egyptian officials are discussing who would carry out those cargo inspections, a person directly familiar with the matter said, requesting anonymity to speak about the delicate negotiations. “All of Gaza is waiting for the aid,” Wael Abu Omar, the spokesman for Hamas’s interior ministry, said Thursday.

☆ World Health Organization: Trucks Are Loaded and Ready to Go

The head of the World Health Organization welcomed Israel's announcement that it wouldn't block entry of water, food and medicine into Gaza through Egypt, and called on Israel to allow fuel into the enclave as well. "Fuel is also needed for hospital generators, ambulances and desalination plants," WHO Director-General Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus said at a news briefing on Thursday. Damage to the border between Gaza and Egypt has delayed the passage of aid into the enclave, after Egyptian President Abdel Fattah Al Sisi told President Biden he would allow aid through. "Our trucks are loaded and ready to go," Ghebreyesus said. "We are working with the Egypt and Palestine Red Crescent Societies to deliver our supplies into Gaza as soon as the Rafah crossing is opened, hopefully tomorrow."
