Israel is under pressure from its allies to enable sufficient aid to reach those living in Gaza
The Israeli military says it will hold a daily "tactical pause of military activity" along a road in southern Gaza to enable more humanitarian aid to enter, but emphasised that there is no ceasefire and combat would continue in Rafah.
The pauses, which are said to have begun on Saturday, will last from 08:00 local time (05:00 GMT) until 19:00 local time until further notice.
They will only affect a route that leads northwards from the key Kerem Shalom crossing, which Gaza shares with Israel.
Aid agency ActionAid told the BBC it was getting a "confused" picture over what the pauses mean.
Israel has been under continuous pressure from its allies, including the US, to prevent the humanitarian crisis in Gaza from worsening.
