EU to launch humanitarian air corridor to Gaza

The European Union will launch a humanitarian air corridor to Gaza through Egypt, with the first flights expected this week, European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen announces.

“Palestinians in Gaza are in need of humanitarian help and aid. That is why… we are launching an EU humanitarian air bridge to Gaza through Egypt. The first two flights will start this week,” von der Leyen tells a press conference in the Albanian capital Tirana, where she is attending a regional Balkan summit.
