Egypt’s Sissi says Gazans must ‘remain on their land’

Egypt’s President Abdel-Fattah el-Sissi says Gazans must “stay steadfast and remain on their land,” amid calls for Cairo to allow safe passage for civilians stuck in Gaza.

Residents of the Gaza Strip “must stay steadfast and remain on their land,” says the president of Egypt, which has the only border crossing with the enclave not controlled by Israel, which is fighting Gaza-based terrorists after a shock assault last week killed 1,300 people in Israel.
