“We ask Egypt to open Rafah crossing soon and permanently in both directions to facilitate the treatment of injured Palestinian patients, receiving medical aid delegation and all essential goods. We stated that Egypt should have responsibility for the condition of the people in the Gaza Strip,” said Bahar.
