STORYLINE:
The Israeli military announced a "tactical pause" in its offensive in the southern Gaza Strip to allow the deliveries of increased quantities of humanitarian aid.

The army said on Sunday the pause would begin at 0500GMT and remain in effect until 1600GMT.

It says the pauses are to take place everyday until further notice.

Several aid trucks were seen on the Israeli side of Kerem Shalom crossing on Sunday.

The pause is aimed at allowing aid trucks to reach the Israel-controlled Kerem Shalom crossing, the main entry point for incoming aid, and travel safely to a nearby highway to deliver supplies to other parts of Gaza.
