A day after dozens of wounded Palestinians and hundreds of foreign passport holders crossed into Egypt from Gaza, more arrived at the Rafah border crossing today.

Wael Abu Mohsen, a Gazan official at the crossing, tells AFP: “Two buses carrying 100 passengers holding foreign passports” entered the terminal during the morning.

Egyptian and Palestinian officials both say 400 foreigners and dual nationals were expected to cross today, alongside 60 to 100 sick and wounded Gazans.
