JAKARTA - Israel has reopened the Crossing of the Slom Brakes on its border with the Gaza Strip.
The Israeli side said aid trucks sent from Egypt had undergone security checks there.
Israel previously closed the Kerem Shalim crossing on Sunday, May 5, after a Palestinian shooting attack nearby killed four soldiers.
Earlier a spokesman for the United Nations Humanitarian Affairs Coordinating Office, Jens Laerke, told reporters Israel had closed Rafah and Kerem Shalim crossings for aid and people as part of its military operations in Rafah, where about 1 million people were displaced.

"The two main routes to distributing aid to Gaza are currently cut off," Laerke said, adding UN agencies had very few stocks in the Gaza Strip, as humanitarian supplies were running out soon, reported by Reuters on May 8.
"The area of the bag only has a fuel supply for one day," he continued.
"If no fuel is included in the long term, this would be a very effective way to end humanitarian operations," Laerke said.
Meanwhile, a spokesman for the World Health Organization (WHO) answered reporters' questions, there were no exceptions for sick and injured patients.
Although some non-fueled supplies have entered Gaza via the northern Emez crossing in recent days, UN agencies say the supply is insufficient and difficult to deliver to Rafah as it means crossing active combat zones.
