Scores of trucks carrying mobile homes have lined up on the Egyptian side of the Rafah crossing in preparation for entering Gaza, according to Al Qahera News Channel correspondent Reham Ibrahim.
She reported that heavy equipment was also stationed alongside the mobile home trucks, awaiting entry. Al Qahera News aired footage of Egyptian-Qatari aid, including mobile homes, rubble removal equipment, and humanitarian supplies, ready to be transported into Gaza.
Additionally, Ibrahim said that 266 aid trucks, including 22 carrying fuel, entered through the Auja and Kerem Shalom crossings today as part of ongoing efforts to deliver essential supplies.
Hamas accused Israel of violating the ceasefire agreement by obstructing the entry of shelter materials such as tents and prefabricated houses, as well as delaying the delivery of fuel, medical supplies, and rubble-removal equipment needed to retrieve bodies and support hospitals.
The ceasefire agreement, which took effect on January 19, outlines a three-phase plan lasting 42 days each. The first phase involves the exchange of prisoners and detainees, the entry of humanitarian aid, and the start of negotiations for the subsequent stages. Egypt and Qatar are mediating the agreement, with U.S. support.
As part of this agreement, 16 detainees have been released so far, out of the 33 scheduled for release in the initial phase.
Between October 7, 2023, and January 19, 2025, Israel’s military actions in Gaza resulted in approximately 160,000 Palestinian casualties, including women and children, with over 14,000 reported missing.
Since the ceasefire took effect, Israel has violated the agreement several times, including 29 military incursions into different areas and over 100 surveillance drone flights during restricted periods.
Israeli forces reportedly fired on Palestinians outside buffer zones 36 times, killing 22 people and injuring 59 others. Additionally, Israel changed the list of Palestinian prisoners scheduled for release without prior coordination and prevented families from visiting detainees.
Media reports highlighted repeated Israeli military incursions beyond the Philadelphi axis, particularly in areas such as Tel Za’arub, Al-Awda Roundabout, Al-Salam neighborhood, Tel Sultan, and the Saudi neighborhood. These actions included the demolition of four houses outside designated buffer zones.
Israel has also restricted the entry of humanitarian supplies, allowing only 53,047 tents out of the planned 200,000 into Gaza and blocking all 60,000 prefabricated shelters. Despite the urgent need for 500 heavy machines to clear rubble and open roads, only four have been permitted to enter.
