Rafah crossing to reopen for three days

The largely sealed border between Gaza and Egypt will reopen for three days starting on Saturday, an official told AFP on Friday.

Interior ministry spokesman Iyad al-Bozum confirmed to the news agency the Rafah crossing would be open from Saturday, for the first time since the reconciliation deal between Hamas and Fatah.
