Egypt's Border with Gaza Opened for a Select Few
6 min•1 november 2023
After weeks of being bombarded by Israeli airstrikes, following the Hamas attacks of October 7th, some in the Gaza strip are finally able to leave the besieged territory.
Hundreds of people – including wounded Palestinians and individuals with foreign passports – have now crossed into Egypt.
The opening of the Rafah Border is a small diplomatic success in a war that has claimed the lives of thousands of civilians. But it's unclear just how many people will be allowed to make the crossing.
Consider This co-host Mary Louise Kelly speaks with NPR's Aya Batrawy, who's in Dubai and has been reporting on the situation.
