Pressure point: Israel to allow humanitarian aid into Gaza as part of its operation

The IDF has stepped up operations around the entire perimeter of the exclave — during one of the strikes, the head of the military wing of Hamas was killed.

Earlier, on July 25, it was reported that, according to Israel, there is no hunger in the Gaza Strip, but there is a problem of food insecurity. Despite this, Israel, according to JP, is trying to convince the UN to send 900 trucks with humanitarian aid to the Gaza Strip.
