Gaza's hunger crisis: 100-lorry aid convoy enters as Israel begins ‘tactical pause'

Against the backdrop of a looming hunger crisis in the Gaza Strip, large-scale aid deliveries reached the besieged and embattled coastal area for the first time in months on Sunday. A convoy of about 100 lorries carrying goods for the suffering population entered the Gaza Strip via the Kerem Shalom border crossing, according to sources in the Palestinian territory. A few hours earlier, the Israeli military announced that it would observe a daily self-declared 'tactical pause in military activity for humanitarian purposes' in parts of the Gaza Strip from 10am to 8pm until further notice. The pause applies to al-Mawasi in the southwest of the coastal strip, Deir al-Balah in the centre and Gaza City in the north – areas where the Israeli army was not operating, it said. Israel designated al-Mawasi as a 'humanitarian zone' earlier in the war. However, the military has since attacked there multiple times, resulting in many deaths. Deir al-Balah is home to the World Health Organization's (WHO) central warehouse, which the WHO said was damaged when Israeli ground troops first entered the area. In addition, humanitarian corridors will be in place from 6am to 11pm to allow the UN and aid organisations to deliver food and medicine to the population in Gaza, the Israeli military said.
