Egyptian state media reports that coordination is underway to “open the Palestinian Rafah crossing to allow the entry of international aid” into Gaza, citing an Egyptian security source.

Egypt is “preparing to bring in the largest possible amount of aid to the Gaza Strip,” the report says, following news of a ceasefire-hostage release deal reached between Israel and Hamas.
