UN Restarts Medical Evacuations from Gaza As Rafah Crossing Reopens
UN deputy spokesman Farhan Haq said the crossing between Gaza and Egypt had reopened to allow a restricted flow of people in both directions.
He stated, "Today, the UN and its partners resumed our support for the medical evacuation of people seeking treatment outside of Gaza, and we've also offered to help those returning to Gaza. This follows a short closure of the crossing by the Israeli authorities earlier this week."
Haq also noted that there has been some progress in the movement of humanitarian supplies following the reopening of the Kerem Shalom crossing on Tuesday.
The developments come as aid agencies continue to press for more consistent and expanded access to the enclave to meet urgent medical and humanitarian needs.
