Hamas says in a statement that Israel’s incursion into Gaza’s Rafah Crossing aimed to undermine ceasefire efforts, after the Israeli army announced it took control of the Palestinian side of the crossing between Egypt and the Strip.
The statement calls on the US and the international community to pressure Israel to halt the “escalation.”
