Rafah crossing to open Sunday but movement tightly limited
Israel says Rafah will open Sunday for “people only” after vetting, allowing residents who left during the war to return with security clearance. Aid trucks likely still blocked; Gaza officials say ~20,000 wait to exit for medical care. Opening follows recovery of last Israeli hostage’s body and was part of earlier US-brokered ceasefire terms that haven’t been fully met. Aid access remains far below prewar levels, and groups like MSF refuse new staff registration demands amid safety concerns.
