The Defense Ministry’s Coordinator of Government Activities in the Territories announces that 46 humanitarian aid trucks entered the Gaza Strip yesterday.

Israel resumed aid deliveries to Gaza on May 19, after a pause since March 2. Since then, 1,561 trucks have entered the Strip, according to official figures.

Some of the truckloads have been taken to aid distribution sites run by the Gaza Humanitarian Foundation. The contents of many of the trucks that entered Gaza in recent weeks are still awaiting collection on the Gazan side of the Kerem Shalom crossing, Israel says.

The aid underwent an inspection by Israeli authorities before entering Gaza via the crossing.
