Gaza, Alray - The Palestinian Prime Minister Ismail Hanyieh said on Monday that the Palestinian Government understands the Egyptians concerns regarding security issues, but it demands the reopening of Rafah crossing.
“We wish peace and security for Egypt, but the Palestinians are severely affected of the closure of Rafah border crossing . We hope that it will be open permanently since we didn’t hurt anybody and we have never or will never pose any threat to the Egyptian security,” said Hanyieh to Alray correspondent.
Hanyieh reaffirmed that Rafah crossing is a normal right o the Palestinians and should not be closed under any circumstances.
The Egyptian authorities' decision on Monday to close the Rafah crossing indefinitely worsen the situations in Gaza especially for stranded travelers.
