Egypt set to receive wounded Palestinians via border crossing (Rafah crossing point)

Egypt opened its Rafah crossing point bordering the Palestinian Gaza Strip on Thursday to receive wounded Palestinians by Israeli air strikes, a security official at the crossing told Xinhua.

More than 45 Egyptians who were stuck at the border after the Israeli air strike on Gaza along with the injured Palestinians were expected to arrive, but still no one showed up fearing the strike, added the official on condition of anonymity.

Arish hospitals in north Sinai have been placed on alert with all necessary equipment and blood donation to cure the Palestinians, Adel Adawi, Egyptian Health Minister said in a statement.


The minister added more than 30 ambulances are prepared at the border with emergency and intensive care teams to help the medical teams in north Sinai and providing the medical treatment in Arish and Sheikh Zuwid Hospitals.

Another four hospitals in Cairo were also ready to receive those in serious conditions, the minister added.

The crossing, the sole one for the Palestinian coastal enclave which has been under an Israeli blockade, is usually closed for security reasons as the restive Sinai Peninsula has been witnessing a surge of attacks by hard-line militants against the police and army institutions since the ouster of the Islamist leader Mohamed Morsi one year ago............http://www.globaltimes.cn/content/869900.shtml
