Israeli authorities will allow limited deliveries of goods and humanitarian aid into the Gaza Strip on Sunday, Palestinian officials said.

(Ahlul Bayt News Agency) - Liaison officer Raed Fattouh told Ma’an that Israeli officials decided to allow around 250 truckloads of supplies into Gaza through the southernmost Kerem Shalom crossing.

Fattouh said 15 trucks would bring building materials for UN-funded projects, while 10 trucks would bring steel pipes for projects funded by the German Development Agency. Meanwhile 59 trucks will bring gravel for USAID-funded projects.

Limited quantities of domestic-use gas will also be pumped into the Gaza Strip, Fattouh added.
