A limited number of Palestinians crossed between Gaza and Egypt on Sunday following the reopening of the Rafah crossing, which had been closed for two days. The reopening was confirmed by Egyptian state media.
The crossing serves as a key passage for people and goods between Gaza and Egypt, and its operation is closely monitored due to the region’s complex political and security situation.
**Why this matters**
The Rafah crossing is one of the main gateways for Palestinians in Gaza to access the outside world. Its closure and reopening can significantly impact the movement of people, humanitarian aid, and essential supplies in and out of the Gaza Strip.
