Israel will allow "temporary" delivery of aid through a crossing in northern Gaza. Authorities will also allow "increased Jordanian aid through the Kerem Shalom crossing," a border post in the far south of Israel.

Since the outbreak of the war on October 7, humanitarian aid has entered the Strip in dribs and drabs and has barely reached the northern part, devastated by fighting and threatened with imminent famine, according to the UN. After the call between Biden and Netanyahu, the United States demanded a "drastic increase" in humanitarian aid to Gaza.
