Rafah crossing with Egypt opens to allow hundreds of stranded Palestinians to return home

 

GAZA, Monday, April 13, 2020 (WAFA) – The Egyptian authorities today opened Rafah crossing with the Gaza Strip to allow hundreds of stranded Palestinians to return home, according to WAFA correspondent.

He said the crossing will remain open for four days to allow hundreds of Gazan who were getting treatment in Egyptian hospitals and their companions, students, businessmen and residents who were visiting relatives abroad when the borders were closed due to the outbreak of coronavirus to return to the Gaza Strip.

Upon their return, they will be placed in a 14-day quarantine to make sure none carry the infection before they will be allowed to interact with people.
