When will Israel reopen Gaza's Rafah Crossing?

Gaza is often referred to as the world's largest open-air prison, trapped between Israel's blockade, Egypt and the Mediterranean Sea. The Rafah Border Crossing is the sole point between Egypt and the Gaza Strip: a strategic gateway to the outside world. But in 2007 Israel imposed an air, land, and sea blockade and the world narrowed for Gaza's 2.2 million Palestinians. Human Rights Watch says the closure of the Rafah Crossing has devastated Gaza's economy, contributed to the fragmentation of the Palestinian people, and enabled Israel's system of apartheid---and that was long before Israel's devastating war. And despite the U.S.-brokered ceasefire, Israel has threatened to keep the Crossing shut because of delays in returning the remains of its captives. So, if and when, the crossing re-opens, how will it operate and who will be in charge?Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-truth--6487495/support.
