In a briefing by the US State Department, spokesperson Matthew Miller highlighted the setback caused by the closures. He stressed the importance of swiftly reopening these crossings to ensure the continuous flow of humanitarian assistance. Miller explained that while Israel has committed to reopening Kerem Shalom soon, the situation depends on future developments, reported ANI.
