Rafah Crossing Reopens After Two Years, Restoring Limited Traffic to Gaza and Egypt

Gaza's Rafah border crossing has reopened for limited traffic after a two-year closure, allowing Palestinians to pass through with permits. The move marks a significant development in the enclave's isolation, which has had severe economic and humanitarian implications. However, the reopening is reportedly limited, with restrictions on the types of goods and people allowed to cross. The crossing will likely provide some relief for Gaza's struggling residents.
