Israel-Gaza conflict: Egypt repairing roads at Gaza crossing ahead of aid delivery

Road repair machinery has been sent through the Rafah border crossing from Egypt into the Gaza Strip in preparation for the delivery of aid stockpiled in Egypt’s Sinai Peninsula. The crossing, which is not controlled by Israel, has been out of operation since the start of the conflict in Gaza. The United States and Egypt have been working to secure a deal with Israel to deliver aid to Gaza, with 20 trucks expected to pass through initially.
