Director General of Gaza border and crossings Maher Abu Sabha revealed that the Egyptian authorities intend to open Rafah border crossing in one way direction for the return of the stranded people in Egypt into Gaza Strip.
In an exclusive talk with the Palestinian center, Abu Sabha disclosed that the crossing will be open on Tuesday and Wednesday on May 26 and 27. He expressed his disappointment for the partial opening after the very long suffering.
Regarding future two-way direction opening, Abu Sabha said the order of opening Rafah crossing was made by the Palestinian Embassy in Cairo to get rid of its responsibility in front of the stranded Palestinians in Egypt.
He also expressed his sorrow that the embassy did not pay efforts for opening it in both ways.
Rafah border crossing has been closed for 138 days and was exceptionally opened for only 5 days. In 2014, it was closed for 241 days.
