Israel Reopens Gaza Food Sales Amid Rafah Aid Blockade

Israel has lifted a ban on the sale of food to Gaza from Israel and the West Bank amid a military offensive in Rafah that has disrupted international aid. This move allows Gazan traders to purchase fresh food, but the flow of deliveries remains inconsistent and insufficient to meet the needs of the population, with high prices making it difficult for many families to afford. The situation has led to increased global pressure on Israel to ease the humanitarian crisis in Gaza.
