Hundreds of people crowded near Gaza’s Rafah border crossing on Monday, clutching passports and hope as they awaited a chance to escape the besieged enclave. Egyptian media outlet Al-Qahera reported that Egypt has refused to open the crossing to foreign nationals until humanitarian aid is allowed into Gaza—a standoff leaving families trapped in a warzone.
🔊 \"We come here every day, praying the gates open,\" said a resident from Khan Yunis, speaking to CGTN Stringer. \"All of Gaza is under attack. We need safety, or at least a way out.\" His plea echoes the desperation of thousands caught in the crossfire, with no clear resolution in sight.
Humanitarian organizations warn of worsening conditions as supplies dwindle. Meanwhile, global leaders urge dialogue to address both aid access and civilian evacuations—a race against time as tensions escalate. 🌍✈️
