The Rafah terminal, marking the Gaza-Egypt border, was recently reopened for medical evacuations after being closed since May, showing the struggles of Gazans to access necessary medical care. With only 5,383 patients evacuated since October 2023 and over 12,000 still needing assistance, the reopening presents limited hope for relief. The director general of WHO stressed that at the current evacuation rate, it could take five to ten years to clear the backlog, underscoring the urgent humanitarian crisis existing in the region.
