‘EU suggests lifting Gaza blockade to Egypt’

The European Union has presented to Egypt a number of possibilities for lifting the blockade over the Gaza Strip, the Al-Hayat paper reports.

During a visit to Cairo yesterday, an EU envoy reportedly suggests reopening the six crossings to and from the Gaza Strip to allow movement of people and goods.

He also suggests that the Rafah crossing between Gaza and Egypt be manned by EU observers, the report says.
