Israel and Palestinian militants traded fire on Saturday after Hamas released an American woman and her teenage daughter.
GRAPHIC: Conditions in Gaza are worsening by the hour. RAFAH, Gaza Strip — The border crossing between Egypt and Gaza opened on Saturday to let a trickle of desperately needed aid into the besieged Palestinian territory for the first time since Israel sealed it off in the wake of Hamas’ bloody rampage two weeks ago.. Hospitals say they are running low on medical supplies and fuel for emergency generators amid a territory-wide power blackout.
Rear Adm. Daniel Hagari, an Israeli military spokesman, said “the humanitarian situation in Gaza is under control.” He said the aid would be delivered only to southern Gaza, where the army has ordered people to relocate, adding that no fuel would enter the territory. Hamas said it was working with Egypt, Qatar and other mediators “to close the case” of hostages if security circumstances permit.
Israel issued a travel warning on Saturday, ordering its citizens to leave Egypt and Jordan — which made peace with it decades ago — and to avoid travel to a number of Arab and Muslim countries, including the United Arab Emirates, Morocco and Bahrain, which forged diplomatic ties with Israel in 2020.
