CAIRO: Egypt with reopen its border with Gaza at the Rafah border crossing this Thursday following the conclusion of Eid al-Adha, according to The Jerusalem Post. The reopening of the Rafah crossing will allow a number of residents of Gaza to exit while allowing pilgrims on the annual Haj to reenter the Gaza Strip. The Egyptian government closed the border with neighboring Gaza last Saturday due to the holiday. Two tons of medical supplies will be transferred to the Gaza Strip via the Rafah crossing under the auspices of Egyptian authorities. The aid package is a “gift from the Tunisian people to the Palestinians.” BM
