The 188th humanitarian aid convoy, "Zad Al-Izza... From Egypt to Gaza," began entering the Gaza Strip today, Monday, through the Rafah border crossing, heading towards the Kerem Abu Salem crossing, in preparation for its entry into the Strip.

An official source stated that the trucks in the convoy are carrying large quantities of food and relief aid, including food supplies, food baskets, flour, fresh bread, legumes, canned goods, medicine, personal hygiene items, tents, clothing, winter supplies, and petroleum products. The source noted that the trucks are subject to inspection by the Israeli authorities before being allowed to enter the Strip. The second phase of the agreement went into effect on Monday, February 2, 2026, following the completion of the prisoner and detainee exchange and the handover of the remains of the last Israeli detainee, as stipulated in the first phase. This phase allowed Palestinians to enter the Gaza Strip and the wounded and injured to leave for treatment in Egyptian hospitals after the Palestinian side of the Rafah border crossing was opened.
