Rafah

Egyptian President Abdel Fattah al-Sisi labeled Israel an “enemy” at the Arab-Islamic summit, saying its actions threaten Egypt’s security and future peace deals, including by causing Gazans to flee.

An expert on Hamas’s economy says Gaza’s civilian outflow is now a strategic problem for the terror group. As morale sinks and costs spike, more residents are leaving, diminishing Hamas’s leverage.

While “residents of the sector were forced to break their Ramadan fast with the scraps left by Hamas, the organization’s leaders were celebrating in the tunnels with a grand feast,” Adraee said.

Channel 12 interviewed Gazans about the IDF's upcoming invasion and takeover of Gaza City, speaking of ongoing displacement and the desire to emigrate.

The GHF does provide absolute numbers of meals, with those numbers reaching up to around 139 million meals over three months, with an average of around 2.3 million meals per week.

"The cycles of grief are widening. Put the ego aside. Stop the war. Bring back all the hostages and allow us, as a family and as a nation, to lift our heads, mourn less, and smile more.”

Hamas's public calls for the complete opening of the Rafah crossing put a strain on Egypt's Sisi, as he feel his authority is being undermined.

Egyptian President Abdel Fattah al-Sisi also rejected claims that Egypt is complicit in the blockade of the Gaza Strip.

The visit follows Witkoff's arrival in Israel on Thursday and meeting with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu as ceasefire negotiations with Hamas have stalled. 

Footage from Cairo’s London embassy showed activists blocking the doors of the building.
