245 aid trucks enter Gaza through Kerem Shalom and Nitzana checkpoints

The coordinator of government actions in the territories, Major General Ghassan Alian, announced that on Sunday, February 25, a total of 245 trucks loaded with humanitarian supplies underwent inspection and were permitted to enter the Gaza Strip.

Of these, 154 trucks entered through the Kerem Shalom checkpoint, while 91 utilized the Nitzna checkpoint for entry.

Previously, the police press service had reported that officers from the Southern District police, MAGAV border police, and other units were diligently assisting the Israel Defense Forces in ensuring the delivery of humanitarian aid to Gaza.

Their efforts involved safeguarding border crossings and access roads against protesters demanding a halt to supplies until Israeli hostages held by Hamas are released.

The police emphasized their adherence to the directives of the country's political leadership and security heads.

"In addition to maintaining law and order in the area and combating crime, substantial police forces were stationed at roads and checkpoints to facilitate the secure passage of humanitarian aid through the Kerem Shalom and Nitzana checkpoints, alongside the shipment of goods from the Ashdod port," stated the police press service in an official release.

On Sunday, hundreds of police officers worked tirelessly at the checkpoints, despite the looming threat of sniper and mortar fire from the Gaza Strip, to ensure the safe transit of hundreds of trucks carrying humanitarian aid into the region.
