The Rafah border crossing between the Gaza Strip and Egypt partially reopened Monday, a significant step in the ceasefire between Israel and Hamas.

Egyptian and Israeli security officials say Gaza’s Rafah border crossing with Egypt has reopened for limited traffic, a key step as the ceasefire moves ahead.

The reopening of the crossing marked a key step in the Israel-Hamas ceasefire but mostly a symbolic one, with few people allowed to travel and no goods allowed to pass through.
