Kiryat Gat, ISRAEL—At a multilevel building originally used for rental storage spaces, soldiers of both the U.S. Army and Israel Defense Forces walked through the front entry point to join their teammates at the Civil-Military Coordination Center, a multinational hub for providing humanitarian assistance to civilians caught in the embattled Gaza Strip.

Opening soon after world leaders signed a U.S.-brokered plan to end the war between Israel and the Hamas terrorist group, the center began humanitarian aid operations on Oct. 17, 2025.
