Egypt Gaza: Rafah border crossing partially open for passenger traffic

For the first time in around a year, the Rafah border crossing between Egypt and the Gaza Strip has been partially reopened for passenger traffic. The crossing is officially in operation, reported the state-affiliated Egyptian television station Al-Kahira News, and Israeli security circles also confirmed the move. This should make it possible for sick and injured Palestinians to leave Gaza again, as well as for people who have fled the war to return.
