The move comes amid stalled negotiations between Israel and Hamas.

The EU on Thursday struck a deal with Israel to increase humanitarian aid access to Gaza that should see more food trucks entering and the opening of additional crossing points, the bloc’s top diplomat Kaja Kallas said.

“This deal means more crossings open, aid and food trucks entering Gaza, repair of vital infrastructure and protection of aid workers. We count on Israel to implement every measure agreed,” Kallas said on X.

The development comes amid stalled negotiations between Israel and Hamas over a U.S.-backed ceasefire proposal.
