Israel stated on July 27 that it would pause military operations for 10 hours each day in a few select areas of the Gaza Strip where the Israeli military is not operating in order to allow the entry of humanitarian assistance, over international concern of hunger in the enclave.
The previous day, the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) announced that, beginning on the evening of July 26, it would begin airdrops of humanitarian supplies and aid into the Gaza Strip.
