This morning, Israel again closed the Kerem Shalom and Al-Awja crossings , claiming that Friday is a public holiday in both Egypt and Israel, thus preventing the delivery of humanitarian aid to Gaza and blocking the shipment of aid trucks from Egypt to Gaza.

This was stated by an official source from the Egyptian Red Crescent. Following the delivery of 360 trucks yesterday, other heavy vehicles remained stuck in front of the Rafah terminal and were not sent to the Karem Shalom and Al Awja crossings for inspection, including those that were supposed to deliver aid this week.
