Israel’s COGAT authority has said the Rafah Crossing between Gaza and Egypt will reopen soon, following months of closure since Israel took control of the area in May. The renewed opening aims to allow Gazan civilians, particularly those needing urgent medical treatment, to cross into Egypt. According to COGAT, the movement will operate under a coordinated mechanism involving Egypt, Israel, and the EU Border Assistance Mission, which will verify and supervise crossings. The reopening is considered a crucial humanitarian step amid ongoing conflict and widespread medical shortages inside Gaza. (PC: Reuters)
