European Union aid chief Hadja Lahbib says Israel has not yet fully implemented an agreement between the bloc and Israel, but that there have been “some positive developments”, Al Jazeera reports.

“We have [seen] some positive developments. It’s true that we have trucks that are able to enter, but we don’t know exactly how many. And what is clear is that the agreement is not fully implemented,” she told reporters ahead of a meeting of EU foreign ministers in Brussels.

Last week, the EU reached an agreement with Israel to improve the humanitarian situation in Gaza, including increasing aid trucks and opening crossing points and certain aid routes.
