Israel’s civilian coordination agency for the Palestinian territories, COGAT, says 3,577 humanitarian aid pallets sent by international organizations have begun unloading at the Port of Ashdod before their transfer to the Gaza Strip.
The deliveries traveled from Cyprus, utilizing a maritime corridor to the Gaza Strip established with Israel, COGAT says. Following a security inspection, the aid will enter Gaza.
COGAT adds that since the corridor opened in March, 10,700 pallets of food, water and medical supplies have been delivered, carried by 750 trucks.
