Gaza: Israel to reopen key aid route as humanitarian pressure grows

For the first time since September, Israel has announced it will reopen the Allenby Crossing, a key route for humanitarian aid between Jordan, the West Bank and Gaza, after three months of closure following a deadly attack on Israeli soldiers. The move comes after diplomatic talks, while humanitarian groups are also urging the opening of the Rafah crossing to ease shortages in Gaza and address rising child malnutrition, despite ongoing disputes over Israel’s restrictions on aid.
