Russia dispatched 27 tonnes of humanitarian aid for Gaza via a special plane from Moscow to El-Arish, Egypt, where it will be handed over to the Egyptian Red Crescent for distribution. Deputy Minister Ilya Denisov stated that the aid includes essential supplies like wheat, sugar, rice, and pasta. This effort aligns with US President Joe Biden's recent deal, enabling limited trucks to enter Gaza through the Rafah crossing from Egypt. The aid comes as a crucial lifeline for Gaza's one million displaced residents amid escalating Israeli air strikes.
