As a Prize for its betrayal of the Palestinian people, the PA gets to control the Rafah Crossing.
According to Israel Today, Palestinian Authority official Ahmed Majdalani said this morning (Thursday) that the agreement regarding the reopening of the Rafah Crossing was finalized a few days ago at a meeting in Cairo in the presence of Egyptian, Palestinian, and Israeli representatives.
According to him, the agreement stipulates that Palestinian Authority officials will return to the Rafah Crossing with international observers according to the 2005 agreement.
In May 2024, Israel took control of the crossing and has since demanded that it have representatives when it reopens, which Egypt has refused for months.
“In an interview with the newspaper “Asharq Al-Awsat,” Majdalani says that on the previous day, EU representatives and Hussein al-Sheikh, a senior PA official, met to make logistical arrangements for the opening of the crossing” [i] and the return of the PA traitors.
At the same time, according to reports, Israel asked the US to extend the withdrawal date from Lebanon for an indefinite period.
“UN sources said that Israel informed the committee supervising the ceasefire agreement that it must remain “for an additional time” in the southeastern sector.
The Al-Akhbar newspaper, which is close to Hezbollah, reported this morning (Thursday) that Israel asked the US to extend the 60-day deadline for withdrawal. for withdrawal for an indefinite period.” [ii]
It was also reported that the Lebanese authorities did not address Hezbollah’s position, but they drew the attention of the Americans and the French to statements by senior Hezbollah officials, who threatened that Monday would be “a different day” if there is no full retreat.
Down with the Zionist monster and its Palestinian servant!
For Palestine, red and free from the river to the sea!
