COGAT, the Coordinator for Government Activities in the Territories, says four tankers of fuel and four tankers of cooking gas entered the Gaza Strip from Egypt today.
“The fuel and cooking gas are designated for operating essential humanitarian infrastructure in Gaza,” the Defense Ministry body tweets.
The aid is entering the enclave as part of an agreement for a lull in fighting between Israel and the Hamas terror group.
Some 50 Israeli hostages — children, their mothers and other women — are set to be freed over the four days of the temporary truce, during which the IDF is pausing its military campaign to destroy the Hamas terror group in Gaza, with three Palestinian security prisoners to be freed in exchange for each hostage.
