CAIRO, Egypt — A meeting between US, Egyptian and Israeli officials is scheduled to take place on Sunday in Cairo to discuss the reopening of Gaza’s Rafah Crossing, a high-level source tells Egypt’s state-linked Al Qahera TV.
Egypt is insisting that Israel withdraw its forces from the crossing, Al Qahera reports. Israel seized the crossing on the Gaza side in May during its offensive in the city of Rafah along the enclave’s southern edge.
