Israel said on July 27 that it would pause military operations in a few select areas of the Gaza Strip where the Israel Defense Force (IDF) is not operating for 10 hours each day to allow the entry of humanitarian assistance, over international concern of hunger in the enclave.

The previous day, the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) announced that, beginning Saturday evening, they would begin airdrops of humanitarian supplies and aid into the Gaza Strip.
