Egypt closes Gaza's only gateway to outside world

Rafah crossing represents Gaza's only gateway to the outside world, as all other points into or out of the coastal enclave remain blocked by Israel.

Egyptian authorities will close Rafah crossing with the Gaza Strip as of Saturday until a further notice, a Palestinian official has said.

Egyptian authorities have said that the Rafah crossing "will be shut as of Saturday and have given no date for reopening it," Maher Abu Sabha, director of borders in the Gaza government, said in a statement, a copy of which was obtained by Anadolu Agency.

Egyptian officials have not confirmed the claim.
