President Joe Biden on Wednesday said Egypt’s president has agreed to open a border crossing into Gaza to allow in 20 trucks with humanitarian aid.

Biden said he spoke with Egypt President Abdel Fattah al-Sisi after his visit to Israel, where leaders there agreed to allow the aid in.

"Sisi deserves some real credit because he was accommodating," Biden told reporters.
