Aid shipments from Cyprus to Gaza resume

Aid shipments from Cyprus to Gaza resumed late on Friday, following a pause on shipments over the death of aid workers.

A small cargo vessel left the port of Larnaca with aid donated by the United Arab Emirates, a Cypriot source told Reuters.

The World Central Kitchen paused aid earlier this month after seven of its workers were killed by Israeli air strikes in early April, halting the direct shipments into Gaza from Cyprus.
