Israel would let aid enter Gaza via Egypt, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s office has announced, saying only “food, water and medicine” will be allowed into the blockaded Palestinian enclave.
“In light of (US) President (Joe) Biden’s demand, Israel would not foil the supply of humanitarian aid via Egypt,” AFP reports quoting the prime minister’s office as saying.
The statement noted that aid to civilians in the southern Gaza Strip would be allowed “so long as these supplies do not reach Hamas”.
