Egypt closes Rafah border crossing with Gaza Strip ‚until further notice‘

“Wait for a few days – there will be a big crisis in Gaza,“ Omer said, alluding to those waiting to cross at the border. … Egyptian authorities closed the Rafah border crossing into the Gaza Strip on Saturday morning, in the wake of a day of bloody attacks against Egyptian military personnel in the country’s restive province of North Sinai.
