10 aid trucks received by Palestinian Red Crescent on Gaza side of Rafah crossing

Ten aid trucks passed inspection procedures at the Rafah border crossing and were received by the Palestinian Red Crescent on the Gazan side on Sunday, according to a CNN stringer on the ground on the Egyptian side.

The Palestinian Red Crescent said in an updated statement on Sunday afternoon, "Today we received 10 trucks from our brothers at the Egyptian Red Crescent through the Rafah crossing, containing food supplies and medical necessities. The total number of received trucks so far has reached 94, while fuel has not been allowed to enter yet.

The CNN stringer on the ground saw a total of 40 trucks from Egypt’s National Alliance for Civil Development Work (NACDW) arrive on the Egyptian side of the crossing between Saturday and Sunday morning -- most of which are waiting to undergo security checks before entering Gaza.

The Israeli military said Sunday it expects more aid trucks to begin entering Gaza soon.

CNN also spotted the International Criminal Court’s chief prosecutor Karim Khan at the Rafah crossing.

A key link: Some aid trucks have been able to enter Gaza through Egypt since the crisis began, via the Rafah crossing, the only entry point to Gaza not controlled by Israel, as seen by CNN’s team on the Palestinian side of the border.

The UN Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees in the Near East (UNRWA) has warned however these were doing little to address Gazans' needs and that more aid is desperately needed.
