Israel opens Erez border for Gaza aid after conflict
The Washington Post — April 5, 2024, 07:00 PM UTC
Summary: Israel's war cabinet opened the Erez border crossing for more aid to Gaza after a call between President Biden and PM Netanyahu. Hamas initiated a cross-border attack on Oct. 7, leading to Israel's war declaration and a significant displacement. The conflict has caused widespread destruction, with tens of thousands killed and half of Gaza facing famine-like conditions. The U.S. supports Israel with weapons and aid despite tensions.
