A ship bearing humanitarian aid was making preparations to leave Cyprus and head for Gaza, the European Commission president said Friday as international donors launched a sea corridor to supply the besieged territory that is facing widespread hunger after five months of war. Israel said Friday it welcomed the maritime corridor, but cautioned it would also need security checks. Aid deliveries by land remained the most effective way to meet the needs in Gaza according to aid officials.
