A 12-member European delegation arrived on Wednesday in the Gaza Strip through Erez (Beit Hanoun) crossing to check up the Egyptian-run Rafah border crossing with Gaza.
Spokesman for the Crossings Department Hesham Udan told PIC that the visit dovetails routine stopovers made by the delegation to follow up on the situation in the terminal.
Rafah crossing is the main exit gate for Gaza’s two million population. Egypt opens the crossing for few days every three or four months making travel for Gazans almost impossible.
