Egyptian authorities reopened Rafah border crossing between Egypt and Gaza Strip for the third day, to allow the stranded Palestinians and humanitarian conditions to cross into and out the Egyptian territory, Aswat Masriya news reported Monday. The decision came upon instructions from President Abdel Fattah al-Sisi to open the crossing in both directions to allow passage to students and their families as well as humanitarian cases and to ease the suffering of many who are stuck in Gaza or in Egyptian territory. On the first day of opening the crossing border, 1323 persons crossed, since the border is the only outlet of the strip to the world.
