Gaza's Rafah border crossing partially reopens under ceasefire deal

Gaza's Rafah border crossing with Egypt has partially reopened under a ceasefire agreement, marking the first limited movement through this vital gateway in nearly two years. The crossing is operating under strict controls, with only a small number of Palestinians allowed to travel in either direction and no commercial goods permitted. Health officials report that tens of thousands of Gaza residents are seeking evacuation for urgent medical needs, while many Palestinians outside the territory hope to return. The crossing is being jointly overseen by Israel, Egypt, and international partners to prevent weapons smuggling and ensure limited humanitarian passage. Despite the ceasefire, sporadic violence continues in Gaza, and the broader goals of reconstruction and new governance remain unresolved.
