On Monday, an Israeli military official announced the reopening of the Kerem Shalom border crossing into Gaza for humanitarian aid. This development comes just one day after Israel had closed the crossing, citing Hamas for allegedly violating the ongoing ceasefire terms.

The official stated that following a decision made at the political level, aid deliveries through Kerem Shalom have resumed in complete accordance with the previously signed agreement. Additionally, the official mentioned that Gaza's Rafah crossing to Egypt "will remain closed until further notice."
