The closure of the Rafah crossing in Gaza has resulted in more than 82,000 tons of humanitarian aid backlogged in Egypt.

The closure of Egypt's Rafah crossing in Egypt has led to a backlog of food and medicine for Palestinians in Gaza, while access to Israel's Kerem Shalom crossing in Israel has been limited due to hostilities. UN officials warn that the situation is critical, especially in northern Gaza, where a famine is imminent.
