Русская версияPalestinian officials say Egypt has temporarily opened its sealed
border crossing with the Gaza Strip.
The crossing is to remain open
until late Sunday. Hamas security forces say they have taken
measures to prevent the flow of tens of thousands of Palestinians
to the crossing by setting up checkpoints. Only sick people and
stranded residents of foreign countries are to be let through. The
Rafah crossing was completely closed last year when Hamas routed
the security forces of Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas and
ousted his Fatah movement.
