Israel says aid to be screened at Karem Abu Salem crossing, but still enter Gaza through Rafah
Israel has announced changes to the route aid trucks will take to enter Gaza.
They will now undergo security checks at the Karam Abu Salem crossing.
Israel claims that the new inspection point will increase the number of trucks going into the strip.
But critics say it will result in significant delays.
The UN has been calling on the Israeli authorities to open the crossing between Israel and Gaza to allow humanitarian aid into the enclave; since the war began, limited supplies have only been allowed in through the Rafah crossing with Egypt.
