Israel Reopens Kerem Shalom Border Crossing for Gaza Humanitarian Aid After Brief Closure

Oct 20, 2025 08:32 pm CST

Israel has reopened the Kerem Shalom border crossing to allow humanitarian aid into Gaza following a one-day closure due to alleged ceasefire violations by Hamas. While aid flows have resumed through this key crossing point in full compliance with the signed agreement, the Rafah crossing to Egypt remains closed until further notice, according to Israeli military officials. Hamas denies breaking the truce terms and has countered with accusations against Israel for violating the agreement.
