Rafah's back - Ambulances transport injured Gazans as Israel reopens crossing for first time since start of Iran war

"Ambulances and vehicles were seen entering Gaza from the Egyptian side on Thursday, as Israel agreed to reopen the Rafah crossing for the first time in three weeks - since the start of the Iran war. The ambulances transported a group of evacuees - eight patients and 17 companions - from Gaza to Egypt for treatment. Video also shows aid trucks entering Gaza through the crossing.    The Israeli military had earlier announced the reopening of the crossing in both directions, before later restricting movement, citing concerns over the smuggling of prohibited materials via the Kerem Shalom crossing. In January, the US announced that talks would move to phase two of Donald Trump's peace plan, including post-war governance and rebuilding. Phase one in October last year covered the ceasefire, exchange of hostages and prisoners, and the entry of aid into the enclave. "
