Israel says it will reopen the Rafah crossing with Egypt in the coming days to let Palestinians leave Gaza. The move will follow security checks by Israel and coordination with Egypt, with EU monitors supervising the process. Israel says this supports the current ceasefire with Hamas. But Egypt denies any deal, saying the crossing would only open both ways under President Trump’s peace plan. The Rafah crossing has been mostly shut since May 2024. Thousands of sick and injured Palestinians still wait to leave Gaza for treatment. Talks continue as delays remain linked to the return of hostage bodies. (PC: BBC)
