Israel will provide urgent humanitarian aid to South Sudan amid reports of Gaza residents moving to the country.

The Israeli Foreign Ministry has announced that it will provide emergency humanitarian aid to South Sudan, which is facing a cholera epidemic and resource shortages. The aid will include medical equipment, water purifiers, masks and food. The decision comes after media reports about an Israeli plan to relocate Gaza Strip residents to South Sudan, which the Sudanese government denied, saying no negotiations with Israel were under way.
