Egypt closes Rafah border crossing with Gaza after five-day opening

‘Egypt has shut the Rafah border crossing, the only passageway to the outside world for the besieged Gaza Strip, after a five-day humanitarian opening.
The Palestinian Border and Crossing Committee said in a statement on Sunday that Egyptian authorities closed the border crossing on Saturday morning, adding that the gateway had been opened for five consecutive days, allowing “humanitarian cases” to go through in both directions.
It further said that 2,664 people, most of whom being humanitarian cases, were able to leave the besieged coastal enclave to Egypt during the few days of opening of the crossing. It added that the non-humanitarian cases were those with Egyptian passports who left from Gaza for Egypt.’
