Tomorrow, Monday, Egyptian authorities are set to open Rafah border crossing in both directions up to 4 days, according to the Palestinian interior ministry spokesman.

The Palestinian official added that the travel details and statements will be published by the General Authority for Crossings at a later time on Sunday.

Egypt has been opening the crossing on an exceptional basis from time to time, to enable the travel of numbers of Palestinians, especially humanitarian cases.

The Rafah crossing is the only gate for the residents of the Gaza Strip, numbering around two million, to the outside world.
