The convoy carried with them humanitarian aid to express solidarity with the besieged people however their late arrival at the crossing left little time for routine paper work before the closing of the border at 7 pm. Organizers were angered when Egyptian officials demanded passports for entry describing it as hampering the aid process since most of the convoy were only carrying the Egyptian IDs
