Missing context from the article:
Biden had said the first 20 trucks would be a test of a system for distributing aid without allowing Hamas to benefit, with UN agencies set to distribute it on the Gaza side of the border, but warned that, if Hamas “doesn’t let it get through or just confiscates it, then it’s going to end.”

Given that Hamas stole over 20,000 liters of fuel from UN facilities in the last week, the ban on fuel makes some sense even if you don’t agree with it.
I’m glad to see Israel and the West coordinating with Egypt to alleviate the suffering of the Palestinian people
Glad we get to see some good news for a change…
Holy shit they permitted entry for OPTIMUS PRIME
Well, yeah, you gonna tell him not to come in? ;)
Israel doesn’t allow more aid trucks than rockets they fired.
