Gaza aid stuck as Egypt says Israel not cooperating

Can someone eli5 me why the Israeli airstrikes inside Gaza mean Egypt can't open the border?
-
It is almost like Israel doesn't want this aid to reach Gaza.
-
Because last week Israel bombed the Gaza side of the border checkpoint multiple times.
-
My understanding is they'd need Israeli cooperation to ensure the area Gaza-side would be safe from bombardment.
-
They bombed the crossing once. They can and will do it again to enforce their blockade.
-
Israel own a 100m strip at the border. It can't be opened unless Israel agrees.
-
Do you have a source for this? Everything I’ve read has stated that that border is controlled by Egypt and Hamas.
