Egyptian soldiers help Palestinian passengers at the Rafah border crossing in the southern Gaza Strip 04 June 2011. Egyptian authorities reopened its Rafah border crossing with the Gaza Strip after a temporary closure which had triggered angry protests at the site, witnesses said. Earlier on Saturday, the Islamic Hamas movement, which rules the Gaza Strip, confirmed that Egypt had kept the gates of Rafah crossing point closed on Saturday and had blocked the travel of the Gaza Strip population. A week ago, Egypt said it was permanently opening the crossing, the only gate for Gaza people to the world bypassing Israel. It would be closed only on Friday, the Muslims' day of worship.
