Palestine: Israeli regime to reopen Rafah crossing, but only for ethnic cleansing operations

Source: France 24 [French state media]

“Israel on Wednesday said it would open the Rafah crossing from Gaza to Egypt to allow residents ‘exclusively’ to exit the besieged Palestinian territory ‘in the coming days.’ Humanitarian groups have called for the reopening of the critical border crossing under the terms of the US-brokered ceasefire deal. … The Rafah crossing is a crucial entry point for humanitarian workers and for lorries transporting aid, food and fuel, which is essential for daily life in a territory deprived of electricity. The crossing has long been the main exit point for Palestinians from Gaza who were authorised to leave the narrow strip of land, which has been under Israeli blockade since 2007.” (12/03/25)
