The convoy, consisting of several aid trucks, headed toward Gaza as part of the ERC's role as Egypt's national mechanism for coordinating humanitarian assistance to the war-battered Palestinian territory.
According to the ERC, the shipment included donated meat, food baskets, flour, medical supplies, relief materials, and petroleum products needed to operate hospitals and other vital facilities across the strip.
The convoy also carried clothing and tents to help meet the needs of displaced Palestinians amid the ongoing humanitarian crisis.
The latest dispatch comes as humanitarian conditions in Gaza continue to deteriorate after more than two and a half years of war, with international organizations warning of a severe lack of food, fuel, medicine, and shelter materials.
The ERC said it has maintained a continuous presence at the border since the outbreak of the war, stressing that the Rafah crossing has never been closed from the Egyptian side.
The organization added that it remains on high alert across all its logistics centres to facilitate the delivery of humanitarian and relief assistance into Gaza.
According to the ERC, total humanitarian aid delivered to Gaza through its operations has now exceeded 990,000 tons, with support from over 65,000 volunteers across Egypt.
The latest Egyptian aid convoy comes amid renewed concerns over the future of the Gaza ceasefire.
On Sunday, Hamas spokesperson Hazem Qassem accused Israel of carrying out a "complete coup" against the October 2025 ceasefire agreement after Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu ordered the military to expand its control of the Gaza Strip from 60 percent to 70 percent.
Qassem said the move would lead to the renewed displacement of hundreds of thousands of Palestinians and the destruction of more homes across the territory.
The escalation coincides with continued Israeli military operations across Gaza. Palestinian health authorities say more than 72,900 Palestinians have been killed and over 172,900 wounded since the start of Israel's genocidal war in October 2023.
Hospitals face growing pressure from fuel shortages, damaged infrastructure, and repeated attacks. Medical officials have also warned that critical services, including dialysis, neonatal care, and intensive care units, are at risk of disruption after key generators at Al-Aqsa Martyrs Hospital stopped functioning.
