Israel has approved the opening of two humanitarian routes into Gaza to increase aid flow.
The Erez Gate in northern Gaza, closed since the war began, will temporarily reopen, and Ashdod Port will also allow humanitarian deliveries. and more aid from Jordan will enter through the Kerem Shalom Crossing.
The decision follows a conversation between President Joe Biden and Israel's Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, where Biden urged Israel to prevent civilian harm and ensure aid worker safety.
Biden's call specifically requested the reopening of these corridors, setting an ultimatum: Israel must act to protect civilians and aid workers or risk changes in US policy towards Gaza.
This marks a significant shift as the US leverages aid to influence the conduct of the conflict.
Seven aid workers from World Central Kitchen were killed in an Israeli strike on Gaza.
