Israeli Minister of Defense Yoav Gallant has approved a 'tactical pause' in military activity along a specific route in southern Gaza to facilitate the distribution of aid, as confirmed by an Israeli military spokesperson. The decision to implement the pause was made in response to a request from a source seeking clarification on the authority behind the move.
The Israeli agency responsible for approving aid into Gaza, COGAT, along with the Southern Command, typically initiates such decisions before seeking higher-level approval based on the prevailing circumstances.
