Dozens of armed men try to forcibly open Gaza-Egypt border crossing

By Avi Issacharoff and Yuval Azoulay, Haaretz Correspondents

A confrontation developed Thursday at the Rafah border crossing between Gaza and Egypt when a few dozen armed men tried to open the crossing and allow thousands of Palestinians waiting on the Egyptian side through.

The Palestinian Authority's Presidential Guard stopped them.

In the past several days, eight Palestinians have died at the Rafah crossing, waiting for days with no shelter and an inadequate water supply.

I know the Egytians don't want them. Neither does anyone else.
