    This is like the 3rd time they say that. Will they bomb the humanitarian aid trucks and corridors again?

    It's quite evident that Israel's goal is the eradication of Palestinians, yet people out there believe it is the opposite.

    You know the one …

    It's where they said it was a safe evac route then bombed non combatants attempting to evacuate.

    While it is a start, the amount of humanitarian aid israel is allowing in is a tiny fraction of what is really needed. The red crescent will have to prioritise the hospitals at this time most likely.

    I believe one of the analysts on al jazeera said that the border crossing will only be open for humanitarian aid for about 6 hours? And also that rafah border crossing can't accommodate the big humanitarian aid trucks, so they have to use smaller trucks. So that also limits capacity of aid.

    The big trucks usually go through the other border crossing that egypt shares with israel, but that one is closed. The name escapes me at the moment.

    Edit: also, what the other commenter ssid is true; is it really going to happen this time? And will israel bomb this convoy of aid as well or will it be allowed to go to the palestinians in gaza?

    President Joe Biden on Wednesday said Egypt’s president has agreed to open a border crossing into Gaza to allow in 20 trucks with humanitarian aid.

    Biden said he spoke with Egypt President Abdel Fattah al-Sisi after his visit to Israel, where leaders there agreed to allow the aid in.

    "Sisi deserves some real credit because he was accommodating," Biden told reporters.

    20 trucks for 2 million people lmao. Sisi was accommodating because he's skrub who doesn't care lol.

    Israel allowing aid only via Egypt is equivalent to not allowing aid at all. "Hey yeah you can get help but from somewhere else"
