After the end of the latest war in July-August, Palestine and Israel reached an agreement to ‘ease’ the blockade by opening all border crossings such as on land, sea, and air.
After the ceasefire was imposed, the agreement has not been fully realized in the reality, while five border crossings are still closed so far.
Rafah border which is adjacent with Egypt was not fully opened. The security situation in the Sinai peninsula is used as the reason for closing the border until now.
Meanwhile the people of Gaza suffered difficult in their life, especially after the 51-days battle with the Israeli occupation that ended last August. (L / P009/R04)
