UN welcomes partial Rafah reopening, urges safe passage

UN welcomes Rafah crossing’s partial reopening after 18+ months, stressing civilians must be allowed to leave and return voluntarily and safely. UN and relief officials say crossings need to let in much more humanitarian aid and act as real corridors. Some medical evacuations to Egypt happened, but ceasefire violations and deadly strikes on civilians continue, and reconstruction needs remain huge. https://www.trtworld.com/article/a48b6dc1981f

Reconstruction will be massive and expensive - who’s going to pay for that? Short-term aid is one thing, long-term plans another.

Good to hear evacuations happened, hope they scale up aid deliveries soon. Too many lives at risk.

Partial opening is better than nothing, but safe return must be voluntary. No one should be forced back into danger.

Ceasefire violations keep happening - until that stops, crossings are just a band-aid. Hope diplomats push harder.

Finally some movement, but partial reopening doesn’t feel like enough. People need real safe corridors, not token steps.
