Israel Announces 'Limited Reopening' of Rafah Crossing

Israel has announced a 'limited reopening' of the Rafah border crossing, which connects the Gaza Strip with Egypt. This reopening comes as part of the ceasefire agreement that came into effect on October 10th. However, Israel maintains full control over the crossing, which will only be open to pedestrians. The decision is linked to the 20-point plan promoted by former US President Donald Trump.
