Aid convoy enters Palestinian territories en route to Gaza

A ten-truck aid convoy crossed the King Hussein Bridge Wednesday on its way to the Gaza Strip. The convoy, dispatched by the Jordan Hashemite Charity Organisation (JHCO) in cooperation with UNRWA, carried 69 tonnes of humanitarian relief, including medical supplies, clothing, blankets and food packages. The JHCO has sent 313 relief convoys to Gaza since the end of the January 2009 Israeli offensive on the strip.
