The entry of aid and fuel trucks for the Gaza Strip at Egypt’s Rafah crossing halted, Egyptian security and aid sources said, as Israel resumed its military campaign following a week-long truce.

According to Reuters, the quantity of aid delivered through the Rafah crossing had increased during the truce, though aid officials said it was still far less than what was needed.

Rafah has been the only entry point for humanitarian relief destined for Gaza, with deliveries beginning on October 21, two weeks after Israel began bombarding the enclave following the surprise attack by Hamas.
