Scores of the wounded and sick die due to #Rafah crossing closure
Palestinian Territory - The ongoing closure of the Rafah land crossing, which connects the #Gaza Strip to #Egypt, has resulted in a dire humanitarian crisis for Palestinian civilians and has accelerated the #genocide that has been taking place since 7 October.
By blocking the Rafah crossing, Israel has tightened its grip and imposed a crippling siege on the Gaza Strip, cutting it off from the outside world and resulting in the deaths of scores of injured and ill people. Additionally, the closure of the crossing has hindered the flow of humanitarian aid and medical supplies, further undermining the efforts of the few remaining local #hospitals.
