Egypt has partially reopened its border crossing with the Hamas-ruled Gaza Strip on Saturday after closing it for almost two months, dpa reported. The Hamas-run Interior Ministry said on its website that Egypt partly opened the Rafah crossing in both directions for three days. The travel is limited to patients, students, and holders of foreign passports, said the Interior Ministry statement. Up to 10,000 Palestinians have applied to exit through Rafah, the ministry said. Around 150 to 300 people can leave Gaza each day through the crossing. -- SPA 15:27 LOCAL TIME 12:27 GMT تغريد
