Egypt has temporarily reopened the Rafah crossing which is the sole border gate between the Gaza Strip and Egypt. Thousands of stranded travelers and patients who need treatment abroad have two days to leave the besieged coastal region. In 2017, the Rafah crossing remained open for only 36 days. PRESS TV’s correspondent Ashraf Shannon has more details from the Gaza Strip.
