Israel will open the Rafah crossing and allow humanitarian aid into Gaza

Israel has decided to reopen the Rafah crossing between Gaza and Egypt and has authorized the entry of humanitarian aid into the Palestinian enclave following the return of the bodies of four hostages by Hamas.
Rafah (Egypt), 12/10/2025.- Humanitarian aid trucks move towards the Rafah border crossing, between Egypt and the Gaza Strip, in Rafah, North Sinai, Egypt, 12 October 2025. An increase of the number of trucks loaded with humanitarian aid were allowed into the Gaza Strip as part of the ceasefire agreement between Israel and Hamas, and ahead of the scheduled October 13th Sharm El-Sheikh Peace Summit to end the conflict in Gaza.

Humanitarian aid in Rafah.

Israeli public television Kan has reported that the Israeli Government has suspended criminal measures against Hamas, including halving the number of trucks with supplies in Gaza.

The decision is a gesture of détente after the recovery of the bodies of the dead hostages in a context of international pressure to alleviate the humanitarian situation in the Strip, where the civilian population is suffering from severe food, water and medicine shortages.

Progress.
