Will Israel’s partial Gaza aid reopening ease tensions?

Asked 2 days ago

Answer

Israel's partial reopening of Gaza aid has not significantly eased tensions, as the amount of aid allowed in remains far below agreed levels and urgent humanitarian needs persist. Aid agencies and the UN stress that much more aid and open crossings are needed to address the crisis and prevent further disaster.
