Israel said on Friday that it will reopen the pedestrian border crossing between Gaza and Egypt in both directions at the weekend, marking an important step forward for US President Donald Trump's ceasefire plan. COGAT, the Israeli military body in charge of coordinating aid to Gaza, said in a statement that a "limited movement of people only" would be allowed through the Rafah crossing starting on Sunday. COGAT said both Israel and Egypt will vet individuals for exit and entry through the crossing, which will be supervised by European Union border patrol agents. In addition to screenings at the crossing, Palestinians leaving and returning will be screened by Israel in the adjacent corridor, which remains under Israeli military control. The crossing has been under a near complete closure since Israel seized it in May 2024, saying the step was part of a strategy to halt cross-border arms smuggling by Hamas. It was briefly opened for the evacuation of medical patients during a short-lived ceasefire in early 2025. Israel had resisted reopening the crossing, but the recovery of the remains of the last hostage in Gaza on Monday

DEVELOPING: Amazon's AI 'Melania' Portrait Sparks Outrage!

This raises questions about the ethical implications of using AI to create potentially biased or revisionist historical narratives.
