Hebrew media: Agreement between Netanyahu and Trump to reopen the Rafah crossing on both sides

The Hebrew Channel 12, citing informed sources, revealed that Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and US President Donald Trump have reached an agreement to reopen the Rafah border crossing on both its Palestinian and Egyptian sides.

The sources clarified that the implementation of this agreement will begin immediately upon Netanyahu's return from his current visit to the United States, indicating a new shift in the course of regional and international understandings related to managing the border crossings of the Gaza Strip.

According to what the Hebrew channel reported, the relevant authorities in Tel Aviv have begun making the necessary preparations and field arrangements to activate this decision, in line with the understandings reached between the two parties.

These developments come amid the new US administration's search for formulas to calm the situation and regulate the movement of people and goods, where the Rafah crossing is viewed as a vital artery requiring high-level security and political coordination to ensure the stability of operations there.
