We have many more tough than good days in this work. But yesterday, seeing so many trucks moving to Gaza, was a good one. This scale up is direct result of ceasefire agreement. There are many frustrations and complications. We still have mountain to climb. But I’m more hopeful.
Packed day with our teams at the Rafah crossing to Gaza, as trucks move in via Kerem Shalom as part of President Trump’s ceasefire deal. Thank you to everyone who made this possible.
