Egyptian Foreign Minister Badr Abdelatty has said 50 fuel trucks are set to enter the Gaza Strip when the ceasefire between Israel and Hamas starts on Sunday, AFP reports.

Abdelatty said it provides for “the entry of 600 trucks per day to the Strip, including 50 trucks of fuel.”

At a joint news conference with his Nigerian counterpart, Abdelatty said “We hope that 300 trucks will go to the north of the Gaza Strip,” where thousands are trapped in what aid agencies say are apocalyptic conditions.
