Israel reopens the key Rafah border crossing between Gaza and Egypt

The Rafah border crossing, the main passage between Gaza and Egypt, has reopened after being closed by Israel for nearly two years. The reopening allows for limited traffic and is seen by some analysts as an Israeli acknowledgment of the war's failure, while the European Union's foreign policy chief called it a concrete step for a Gaza peace plan. Egypt has raised concerns with the United States over Israeli restrictions at the crossing, and there is some uncertainty about the exact details of how it will operate.
