"Gaza mediators Egypt and Qatar, and six other Muslim-majority countries have raised the alarm over Israel's stated plan for a one-way opening of the Rafah border crossing, which would allow Palestinians to leave their territory, but not to return, and block the entry of humanitarian aid. It comes as Israel's genocidal war on Gaza continues unabated, with some 600 violations of the ceasefire in the last seven weeks."
"The foreign ministers of Egypt, Indonesia, Jordan, Pakistan, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, Turkiye and the United Arab Emirates issued a joint statement on Saturday that expressed deep concern over a recent military announcement that the Rafah Crossing will open in the coming days exclusively for the exit of residents from the Gaza Strip to Egypt. The announcement, which breaches Israeli obligations under the first phase of a United States-led peace plan,"
Egypt, Qatar and six other Muslim-majority states warned that Israel intends to open the Rafah border crossing one-way, allowing Palestinians to leave Gaza but not return and hindering humanitarian access. Eight foreign ministers issued a joint statement expressing deep concern and rejecting attempts to displace the Palestinian population from their land. The ministers urged Israel to fully comply with the US 20-point peace plan, which mandates that Rafah be opened in both directions. An Israeli military unit (COGAT) announced that one-way exit would be permitted with Israeli security approval in coordination with Egypt. Gaza has seen around 600 ceasefire violations in seven weeks.
