The Rafah border crossing between Gaza and Egypt has been subject to closures and openings due to security concerns and evacuation operations. The border authority in Hamas-controlled Gaza announced the opening for Egyptians and foreigners listed since Nov 1, with subsequent closures due to unspecified 'security circumstances' as stated by the US State Department. However, it was later reported that more than 700 people left Gaza for Egypt through the Rafah Crossing. The latest announcement is that the Rafah land crossing will reopen for foreigners on Sunday.
