Egypt - June 16, 2025 Egyptian authorities have reportedly prevented multiple humanitarian aid convoys—originating from Tunisia and Libya—from entering Gaza through the Rafah border crossing, according to regional sources. The blocked shipments included the "Steadfastness Convoy," a well-publicized initiative carrying essential supplies meant to support civilians amid the ongoing crisis in the Gaza Strip. Eyewitnesses and convoy organizers reported that Egyptian forces halted the trucks before they reached the crossing point. The move has sparked frustration among humanitarian groups and activists, who accuse Egypt of complicity in the blockade. No official reason has been given by Cairo for the stoppage.
